*Former U.S. President Barack Obama is set to command a premium for his upcoming London appearance, with top-tier VIP tickets priced at £1,790, significantly outpacing the £860 charged for Beyoncé’s priciest VIP package during her Cowboy Carter tour at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
According to The Standard, the event, titled “An Evening with President Barack Obama,” will take place at London’s O2 Arena on September 24, 2025, followed by a performance at Dublin’s 3Arena on September 26. Obama’s enduring global appeal continues to draw crowds eager to hear his insights on contemporary issues.
“We are incredibly honoured to bring President Obama to the UK and Ireland for these truly special events,” said Stuart Galbraith, CEO of Kilimanjaro, and Alex Fane, CEO of Fane Group, the organisations behind these events, per The Daily Star.
“His message of unity and progress resonates deeply, and we anticipate an evening that will inspire and empower all who attend. We believe in providing exceptional experiences, and this event perfectly aligns with our mission to connect people with inspiring moments,” Galbraith added.
The premium VIP package offers exclusive benefits, including a photo opportunity with Obama, subject to security clearance, and only available for pairs. Solo attendees cannot purchase this package or be paired with others for the photo, The Standard reports.
Additional perks include VIP check-in, a commemorative ticket, a copy of Obama’s memoir “A Promised Land,” prime seating near the stage, and entry to an exclusive post-show club featuring live music and a full bar. By comparison, Beyoncé’s highest-tier VIP package offered premium seating, early access, exclusive merchandise, and entry to a private lounge.
For a more upscale experience, attendees can opt for Obama’s £895 dining package, which features a four-course meal at Gaucho steakhouse, a welcome glass of champagne, seating within the first ten rows, a copy of his book, and access to the Seat Unique Club with its private bar and live entertainment. Additional VIP packages start at £595, while general admission tickets—expected to be more budget-friendly—will be available starting July 10 at 10 a.m. In each city, organizers will also allocate 100 tickets for charitable organizations.
Obama and Beyoncé share a connection; she performed the national anthem at his 2013 inauguration.
