## Summary

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds played their only advertised UK date of the year on 31 July at Preston Park in Brighton, the city that has become Cave's adopted home. The homecoming show formed part of a wider day of celebrations, including a surprise rooftop performance and support sets from English Teacher, Cate Le Bon, The Flaming Lips and Warmduscher, before the headline set drew a sold-out crowd for a night of career-spanning highlights.

The 19-song set opened with "Get Ready for Love" and moved through favourites including "Wild God" and "The Mercy Seat", with a standout moment arriving when Kylie Minogue joined the band for their first live rendition of "Where the Wild Roses Grow" since 2018. The band closed the main set with "Jubilee Street" and "Hollywood" before returning for a three-song encore ending with "Into My Arms". The Brighton gig marks a pause before the final leg of Cave's European tour, which resumes in August with dates in Croatia, Germany, Romania and Norway, concluding at Rock En Seine in Paris on 28 August.
