Cody Johnson London October 27, 2026: Setlist & The O2 Before You Go

Live ’26 • London • Updated October 21, 2026

Cody Johnson brings Live ’26 to The O2 in London on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, with Parker McCollum and Emily Ann Roberts. Our setlist forecast puts the Texas opening run, the newer “Banks of the Trinity” material and the big emotional finish at the center of the night. For your journey, make North Greenwich the anchor of the plan.

This is a weekday arena trip: the difference between a relaxed evening and a rushed one is usually the handover from work to travel, food and entry. Aim to arrive with the support acts still ahead of you, rather than treating the advertised doors as Johnson’s stage time.

Date and billing: Cody Johnson’s official tour schedule and the venue event page.

Our concert outfit pick

Vintage Live on Tour Jersey

For London, we’d let the cream jersey do the work and keep everything else dark: black jeans, comfortable boots and a plain jacket. The guitarist portrait reads as a country fan piece without needing a full costume. Check the product page’s available size and customization choices before ordering.

Cody Johnson London setlist prediction

Our personal forecast follows the Live ’26 shape reported at Edmonton on September 17, with the August 29 St. Paul report as a second reference. We’re backing the Texas-heavy opening, a substantial middle of newer songs and the emotional late-set run. This is our predicted sequence for London.

3. Dance Her Home
4. With You I Am
5. Dear Rodeo
6. Nothin’ on You

18. The Painter
19. ‘Til You Can’t

21. Diamond in My Pocket

The London moment we’re waiting for

“The Painter” is our emotional focal point for this show. In a room as large as The O2, a plainly delivered love song can provide the sharpest contrast to the opening stretch. We’d follow that quieter attention into the release of “’Til You Can’t,” then keep room for a story-led encore. Learn those two choruses before you travel; they give a first-time listener an easy way into the evening.

Before you go: make North Greenwich your meeting point

Finish the workday with a real arrival plan

The current event detail page lists doors at 6 p.m.. Some search previews retain a later time, so use the live event page and your ticket email for the final entry instruction. Doors are the point to work back from when planning dinner and transport, not a published Cody Johnson start time.

Our suggested approach is to get to the peninsula before doors if your work schedule allows it, eat without rushing and check your entrance before joining the queue. If friends are arriving from different parts of London, name one meeting point outside the security queue and agree on a cutoff time for going in separately.

Tube first, with the return connection saved

The O2’s transport guide identifies North Greenwich on the Jubilee line as the nearest Tube station. Check your complete route home, including the connection after the Jubilee line; the final leg is the one that can turn an easy city journey into an expensive taxi ride.

If you prefer the river, use the boat information linked from that guide and check the specific departure you want. Treat a scenic arrival as part of the evening, with its own timetable, rather than assuming the same option will be available after the show. Drivers should use the venue’s event parking information and save the booked car park details.

An A4 bag is the limit, not the packing target

The arena bag policy allows one A4-sized bag or smaller per person, and excludes backpacks, travel cases, laptop bags and large totes. Leave the work laptop and overnight luggage somewhere appropriate before heading to the arena. A bag that has been fine on the commute may be the wrong bag for entry.

Keep your ticket, payment method and phone accessible, and choose an outer layer you can carry once indoors. If you’re wearing boots, use a pair you’ve already walked in for a full evening. The short walk from the station is only part of the time you’ll spend on your feet.

Build the trip around the station, build the outfit around comfort, and arrive with time for the whole bill. Once you’re inside, the night’s real contrast is musical: brisk Texas swagger up front, a more reflective middle and those last choruses everyone has been saving their voice for.
