The UK Albums Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling albums of the week in the United Kingdom. Since 2004 the chart has been based on the sales of both physical albums and digital downloads. Since 2015, the album chart has been based on both sales and streaming. This list shows albums that peaked in the top ten of the UK Albums Chart during 2025, as well as albums which peaked in 2024 and 2026 but were in the top 10 in 2025. The entry date is when the album appeared in the top 10 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced).
One-hundred and fifty-nine albums were in the top 10 this year. One album from 2021, one album from 2023 and nine albums from 2024 remained in the top ten for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while Rebel by EsDeeKid, Rumours by Fleetwood Mac, originally released in 1977, were both released in 2025, but did not reach their peak until 2026. Christmas by Michael Bublé, originally released in 2011, and +âÂÂ=ֈ(Tour Collection) by Ed Sheeran were the albums from 2024 to reach their peak in 2025.
The first new number-one album of the year was Christmas by Michael Bublé. Overall, thirty-nine albums peaked at number-one in 2025, with Elton John, Ed Sheeran, Pink Floyd and Taylor Swift (all 2) having the joint most albums hit that position.
An asterisk (*) in the "Weeks in Top 10" column shows that the album is currently in the top 10.
