The first of two Blur concerts, which are the centrepiece of the band's reunion, will take place in London's Hyde Park later.
The sold-out outdoor gigs come just four days after the Britpop band closed the Glastonbury festival in Somerset.
Blur are widely expected to play a greatest hits set at the Hyde Park gigs.
Earlier this year, guitarist Graham Coxon said he expected the shows to last over two hours and comprise of songs from each Blur album.
“I specifically told the band that we should play 'Think Tank'. I was very keen on that,” Coxon said of the album that he failed to tour.
More than 100,000 people will watch the two shows.
Until now, Blur's reunion tour has focussed on the smaller venue's and festivals where they made their name.
Their appearance at Glastonbury marked the first time the bandhad performed at the event in Somerset in over a decade.
