Fat Dog’s September 30 announcement schedules Rough Trade matinees in Nottingham on October 6 and Liverpool on October 7, 2026, following the October 2 release date for Cancel Me (I’m Tired) listed by Domino. The official instore hub lists these matinees separately from the other Nottingham and Liverpool performances, which it marks sold out. Select the matinee entry for the correct city when following a booking link.

For Tuesday October 6 at Rough Trade Nottingham, DICE advertises doors at 3 p.m. and Fat Dog at 4 p.m. For Wednesday October 7 at Rough Trade Liverpool, it lists doors at 5 p.m. and Fat Dog at 6 p.m. All times are BST, and both events are listed as all ages. Doors are not the performance start; check the event page and your ticket again before travelling.

Both DICE event descriptions say tickets include a physical album in the selected format, collected from the relevant Rough Trade store on show day. Both also say the matinee albums are pre-signed, so do not assume there will be an in-person signing or meet-and-greet. The collection FAQs advise picking up the order on entry rather than on the way out. Check the format and collection instructions attached to your order before paying.

DICE says tickets are securely stored in its app. The hub’s Buy links are booking routes, not proof of remaining quantities: this guide has not tested checkout, ticket inventory or a ticket-only option. Use the event-specific listings below rather than assuming a ticket for a different performance provides matinee admission.

Nottingham’s listing describes a first-floor venue with lift access and staff assistance; Liverpool advertises step-free access via a lift. Both direct free PA/carer-ticket requests to dice.fm/contact for an existing ticket, and advise requesting early because spaces can be limited. Confirm your own access arrangements through the provider or venue before travelling. The photograph above is archival festival imagery, not either October instore.
