Passenger headlined a homecoming show at Hove Park on Sunday 6 September 2026, marking a significant return to Sussex for the artist Mike Rosenberg.
The event, presented by JOY. Concerts in partnership with BBC Radio Sussex, was the artist’s largest headline performance in his home county. The show at the Goldstone Crescent venue reflected a full-circle moment for the singer-songwriter, who began his career performing in the region before achieving international success.
Festival Atmosphere and Support Acts
The afternoon-to-evening celebration featured a curated line-up of supporting talent. Joining Rosenberg on the bill were the folk-rock trio The Staves, as well as John Smith, Ber, and Chris Simmons. The headline set included a range of material from across his career, with reported highlights including “Survivors” and “Victor’s Song”.
The venue at Hove Park (BN3 6BG) hosted the outdoor performance.
The move to a larger outdoor park venue allowed for a higher-capacity crowd compared to traditional indoor Brighton venues, marking a step up in scale for the artist’s local appearances. Fans seeking updates on future tour dates or further Sussex performances can find information through official channels and the AXS ticketing platform.
