Who is Little Simz?
Simbiatu Abisola Abiola Ajikawo, who performs as Little Simz, was born on 23 February 1994 in Islington, London. She is among the most decorated names in British hip-hop.
The 2021 album Sometimes I Might Be Introvert won the Mercury Prize in 2022, and she was named Best New Artist at the BRIT Awards the same year. Her shows are built on a live band with strings and horns, which makes hall acoustics a real factor in ticket choice. Use the FlyVentis records below for current stops.

A live band makes the hall matter
Her shows use a live band that can include strings and horns. In that arrangement acoustics count as much as proximity to the stage, and the balance reads more clearly from the central blocks.
The category name does not carry that information; read block and row on the seating plan. For details see the stadium and arena ticket-category guide.
Festival set versus her own show
At festivals the set is shorter and the live band may be reduced; at her own hall show the full arrangement is used and the repertoire widens.
If you are travelling for this concert alone, identify the event type first. For overall cost see the travel budget guide.
Little Simz upcoming dates
Concert-day checklist
- Confirm whether the event is a festival or her own show.
- Check the block and row number on the seating plan.
- Read the speaker stack positions from the venue plan.
- Note the last public-transport service after the show.
What to know before you go
- With a live band, hall acoustics are decisive.
- The band may be reduced for festival sets.
- The balance breaks down directly in front of the speaker stacks.
- Never share your barcode with third parties.
How to plan travel for a Little Simz concert
Buy the ticket first and search for flights afterwards. Hall shows start early, so plan to be in the city by the afternoon.
If several UK stops are practical, intercity rail links them more cheaply than flying. Choose accommodation by late-night transport links.
Keep planning
