Legacy of the Khans: Rahat Fateh Ali Khan Brings a Royal Lineage of Qawwali to the UK

On 3rd April 2025, at a press conference filled with emotion and reverence, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan officially announced his most personal project to date: the Legacy of the Khans UK Tour — a powerful musical tribute to his lineage, honouring the immense cultural impact of his father, Ustad Farrukh Fateh Ali Khan, and his uncle, the legendary Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.

The Legacy of the Khans tour will cover major UK cities including London, Birmingham and Manchester. Each concert will be a curated tribute, not only to the signature compositions that defined a genre but also to the lesser-known gems that shaped generations of listeners in South Asia and beyond. What makes this concert even special is that he will be performing with his son, Shahzaman Ali Khan.

With visuals, archival footage, and spoken tributes integrated into the concerts, the show will be as much a spiritual offering as it is a performance. Rahat confirmed that each evening will open with a special segment dedicated to his family’s contributions
