Summary
Lewis Capaldi electrified Cardiff with two sold-out nights at Blackweir Fields, packing in over 80,000 fans and delivering a powerhouse set of hits including his number-one singles and a surprise Britney Spears cover. Meanwhile, Katy Perry dazzled crowds just down the road at Bute Park, making it a landmark weekend for live music in the city. Capaldi even took a playful detour during his second show, mistakenly calling out TikTok-famous “Spud Man” before correcting himself and praising The Spud Fam’s legendary jacket potatoes — even joking that they’re life’s ultimate comfort food. The Spud Fam, based in Port Talbot, were stunned when Lewis’s personal assistant rushed to their stall before the show, wanting a potato — and insisted on paying, despite being offered one free. It was a humble, heartwarming moment for the vendors, who said serving a superstar felt surreal — and Capaldi’s choice? A simple, fueling jacket potato, just like any fan would grab before hitting the stage.
