We Are Scientists bring their live show to O2 Academy Bournemouth on 8 October 2026, celebrating 20 years of their debut album, With Love and Squalor. It is a single evening built around the record that first made the indie rock band’s name, staged at one of the town’s best-known music venues.
What to expect
The night looks back over two decades since With Love and Squalor, brought to the stage as a full live gig rather than a low-key set. Expect the energy and volume of a proper rock show in an intimate room. The running order is set by the band and organisers, so it is worth checking the venue’s official listing for the latest details.
Planning your visit
O2 Academy Bournemouth is one of the town’s best-known live venues, right in the centre and within easy reach of the seafront, bars and restaurants for before or after the show. Book through the venue’s official listing, where you will also find the most up-to-date start times, prices and any age restrictions.
