Harlequins Rugby launch summer with huge event at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham this May. With headline show from Hard-Fi!
Harlequins are set to kickstart the summer in spectacular style, with British rock heavyweights Hard-Fi confirmed as headline act for Big Summer Kick-Off at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham on Saturday 16th May.
Rugby meets live music in a blockbuster afternoon at the Home of England Rugby, as Quins take on Exeter Chiefs (16:00 KO) in their penultimate home fixture of the 2025/26 season – with a huge pre-match performance designed to raise the energy levels in-bowl ahead of kick-off.
Fans will have the chance to see Hard-Fi live, as they bring their unmistakable indie sound back to home turf, having first forged their identity just miles away in Staines-upon-Thames. With platinum-selling albums Stars of CCTV and Once Upon a Time in the West, the band will deliver a high-energy set filled with era-defining anthems.

Hard-Fi lead singer, Richard Archer said: “I used to look down at the old Twickenham stadium from my aunt’s flat, so I’m very excited and honoured to be playing at Allianz Stadium with Harlequins! It’s going to be a great day and only two stops on the train!”
The party doesn’t stop at kick-off. Renowned live singalong band Massaoke will keep the energy high post-match in the West Fan Village, rounding off a full day of entertainment on and off the pitch.
And that’s not all! With live music, interactive games, amusements and much more, don’t miss the Big Summer Kick-Off at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham this May.
