On Monday (January 27), the Teenage Cancer Trust announced their 2025 lineup of benefit shows taking place at London’s legendary Royal Albert Hall at the end of March. The reunited Sex Pistols – featuring original members Paul Cook, Steve Jones, and Glen Matlock, with Frank Carter on vocals – kick off the festivities on March 24, joined by opening acts Kid Kapichi and the Molotovs. “After an incredible 2024, we are itching to get going again this year and what better way than on home territory at a venue that wouldn’t have let us near it back in the day! It’s an honor to help this great charity,” said Jones. Frequent Cancer Trust participants The Who will play two shows this year, on March 27th and March 30th, with Level 42 opening each night. Frontman Roger Daltrey has overseen each TCT benefit since 2000, and serves as an Honorary Patron for the charity. James Arthur will play on March 26, while the Corrs will perform March 28.
