Sweet (October 23, 2026) – Live 25 Album: 2LP Turquoise Vinyl

---

Live 25 is a live album by Sweet, scheduled for release on October 23, 2026.

The album follows Full Circle, the band's 2024 studio album, which returned Sweet to the German album chart Top 20 for the first time since Level Headed in 1978.

Following the release of Full Circle, the band took the newer material onto the stage alongside established Sweet classics and heavier catalogue tracks that had appeared less frequently in recent setlists.

Andy Scott describes Live 25 as more than simply a live recording, presenting the album as a celebration of the live performance tradition that has remained central to Sweet since the 1970s.
