The Royal Hospital Chelsea is the historic Sir Christopher Wren-designed home of the Chelsea Pensioners on Royal Hospital Road in central London (SW3), and each June its South Grounds are transformed into a fully seated, 6,000-capacity open-air auditorium for the Live at Chelsea concert season. The 2026 line-up runs 10–14 June with Holly Johnson, Tony Hadley and Heaven 17, Blue, Sparks, The Proclaimers and The Beach Boys, spanning pop, rock and soul. Gates open at 5.30pm with the arena opening at 6.30pm, and a portion of every ticket supports the ongoing care of the Chelsea Pensioners. A prestige open-air London concert setting rather than a grassroots room.
