Temples (UK) — 2026 World Tour | Aug 26 | MAO Livehouse Shenzhen Sea World

British indie-psych quartet Temples bring their 2026 world tour to MAO Livehouse Shenzhen Sea World on Wednesday August 26, 2026 — a rare Shenzhen concert date for one of the UK's most distinctive modern rock bands. Expect a tight 90-minute set of krautrock-infused dream-pop from the Kettering four-piece, presented in an intimate 400-capacity livehouse setting in Shekou.

About Temples

Temples are a British psychedelic-rock band formed in Kettering in 2012, fronted by singer-guitarist James Bagshaw and rounded out by Tom Warmsley, Adam Smith, and Rens Ottink. Their sound — equally indebted to Tame Impala's neo-psych and the Beatles' mid-period studio experimentation — earned them a deal with Heavenly Recordings on the strength of their earliest demos alone. Signature tracks include «Sun Structures», «Keep in the Dark», «Certainty», «Shelter Song», «Move With the Season», and «A Question Isn't Answered». They've released four studio albums, with their 2026 tour supporting the latest record.
