Radiohead Makes Historic Return: 20-Show European Tour Announced for Late 2025

Breaking News: Radiohead Returns to Stage

Radiohead is officially returning to the stage for the first time in seven years with a special run of shows this November and December. The legendary and often enigmatic band will perform a 20-show European arena tour, with four-night residencies in Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen, and Berlin.

Tour Details and Ticket Information

To help get tickets directly to fans and to minimise interception from touts and bots, tickets will only be accessible by registering at radiohead.com. Registration will be required before tickets go on sale, with the registration form opening between 10:00 BST/11:00 CEST on Friday, September 5th and 22:00 BST/23:00 CEST on Sunday, September 7th.

Band’s Perspective and Future Plans

According to Radiohead drummer Philip Selway, the band got together to rehearse last year ‘just for the hell of it.’ After their seven-year pause, it felt good to play the songs again and reconnect with their musical identity. This led to their decision to play shows together, though for now, it will just be these announced dates, with the future remaining open-ended.

Historical Context

Radiohead’s last official live show took place at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on 1st August 2018, which wrapped up their A Moon Shaped Pool tour, supporting the 2016 album of the same name. While individual members have remained busy, including with numerous electronic and club-oriented records, the beloved group haven’t released an album together since 2016’s A Moon Shaped Pool.

Looking Ahead

These are the only shows that Radiohead will be playing for now, though the band hopes to do more shows elsewhere in the future. This historic return marks a significant moment for fans worldwide, offering a rare opportunity to witness one of rock music’s most influential bands perform live once again.
