Blind Fest: Tom Odell

BLIND FEST MAKES A STRONG RETURN AFTER A YEAR’S BREAK WITH TOM ODELL!

BLIND, one of the venues that shaped the music culture of Beyoğlu and Asmalımescit, returns after a year’s break with Blind Fest, its open-air festival. Centred on alternative sounds, strong live performances and good music, Blind Fest is getting ready for another unforgettable night this summer.

Having hosted internationally acclaimed names such as Balthazar and Placebo in previous years, Blind Fest — organised by Blind and Epifoni with the support of %100 Müzik — meets music lovers at Life Park on 23–24 June 2026.

The guest on the first night, 23 June, is Tom Odell, one of the most special names in contemporary music for the depth of his songwriting and his sincerity on stage. Boldly touching the fragility of the human soul, the pressures of the modern world and inner reckonings, Odell builds a barer, more honest and more vulnerable story with every album. He has a huge following in Turkey, and every concert he has played here sold out days in advance.

Especially since the pandemic and his 2021 album “Monsters”, the rawness and honesty of Odell’s songwriting have built a strong bond with a new generation of listeners. His 2012 release “Another Love” has passed 3 billion streams on Spotify alone and become one of the most iconic songs of his generation.

Though he first became known as a young British pop star who won a Brit Award, glossy mainstream success was never what drove him. Now 35, he proved his artistic maturity and productivity once again with last year’s seventh studio album, “A Wonderful Life”.

With the support of %100 Müzik and new artists to be announced, Blind Fest is set to be one of the most exciting festival stops of summer 2026.
