British reggae band UB40 is set to make its second trip to Fiji, with officials confirming 2026 as the date for its next concert.
The show will take place at King Charles Park in Nadi, nearly two decades after the band’s last appearance in Fiji during its Who You’re Fighting For South Pacific tour.
The announcement comes just months after the massive success of the Homecoming Festival 2025, which drew thousands of fans to Nadi.
