Lewis Capaldi Plays Surprise Rooftop Set on Rebranded Aldi in Nottingham

The stunt promoted his new single during a high-profile return to touring.

Overview

  • Capaldi performed from the roof of the West Bridgford Aldi on September 26, playing his new track 'Something In The Heavens' alongside 'Survive' and 'Someone You Loved'.
  • The store was temporarily renamed 'Cap‑Aldi' with a cardboard sign, and Aldi UK executive Julie Ashfield praised the moment as a special treat for customers.
  • Crowds gathered outside the branch as cars paused to watch, with on-scene reports describing brief traffic disruption.
  • Nottinghamshire Live reported the short set will be used in an advert and said some attendees were pre‑arranged, a claim not confirmed by Aldi in these reports.
  • The pop-up appearance came hours before his Motorpoint Arena Nottingham show as he continues a widely attended UK arena tour following his return to live performance.
