Following the success of last year’s events in Dublin and London, Fane, Kilimanjaro, Singular Artists and Regular Music are proud to announce Seat Unique Presents: An Evening with President Barack Obama. An inspiring, unmissable live event featuring the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama.
Few presidents have walked a more improbable path to the White House. Now, as America marks 250 years since the Declaration of Independence, President Barack Obama joins us in Belfast, Glasgow and Manchester to discuss what comes next – for America, and for all of us.
Presented by Seat Unique and brought to you by Fane, Kilimanjaro, Singular Artists and Regular Music, this exclusive evening offers a rare chance to hear directly from one of the most transformational leaders of our time.
Winning more votes than any candidate in history, President Obama took office at a moment of crisis unlike any America had seen in decades. A nation at war, a planet in peril, and the American Dream itself threatened by the worst economic calamity since the Great Depression.
His leadership helped rescue the American economy, revitalised the American auto industry, grow the middle class, pass the Affordable Care Act, wind down two wars, and refocus American diplomatic leadership around the world – all while overseeing the longest stretch of job creation in American history.
In his post-presidency, President Barack Obama has dedicated his efforts to supporting the next generation of leaders. The Obama Foundation is bringing that vision to life through programs for emerging leaders across continents, and the Foundation’s mission to inspire, empower, and connect people to change their world. That legacy will carry on through the Obama Presidential Center, which opened this summer on Chicago’s South Side.
Don’t miss this rare chance to hear President Obama’s message in person – a call to hope, resilience, and the belief that ordinary people, together, can still shape what comes next.
As President Obama has said: “True democracy is a project that’s much bigger than any one of us. It’s bigger than any one person, any one president, and any one government. It’s a job for all of us.”
Presented by Seat Unique, these landmark events will take place at The O2 Belfast on 13 October, OVO Hydro Glasgow on 14 October and Co-op Live Manchester on 15 October 2026. In each city 100 tickets will be set aside for charitable organisations.
Stuart Galbraith, CEO, Kilimanjaro and Alex Fane, CEO, Fane Group, commented: “We are incredibly honoured to bring President Obama to the UK and Ireland for these truly special events. His message of unity and progress resonates deeply, and we anticipate an evening that will inspire and empower all who attend.”
Robin Sherry, Founder and CEO of Seat Unique, said: “Following the phenomenal response to last year’s events, we are delighted to bring three new opportunities for fans to experience an evening with President Barack Obama. At Seat Unique, we’re passionate about bringing fans closer to the world’s greatest live events and our premium experiences including an exclusive photo opportunity with President Barack Obama is a great example of that.
