Radiohead confirm details of UK and Europe tour
Radiohead have confirmed they will embark on a 20-date tour of the United Kingdom and Europe in 2025.
The set of upcoming shows marks their first series of concerts since 2018. They will play a series of shows in Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen, and Berlin.
The tour will begin on November 4th at the Movistar Arena in Madrid, where they will also play on the 5th, 7th, and 8th. Radiohead will then visit Italy to play four nights at the Unipol Arena in Bologna on November 14th, 15th, 17th, and 18th.
Next up, Radiohead are set to return home to the UK for four shows at London’s O2 Arena on November 21st, 22nd, 24th, and 25th. Then, they head to Copenhagen, Denmark, for four shows at the Royal Arena on December 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th.
Finally, Radiohead will be rounding off the year with shows at the Uber Arena in Berlin on December 8th, 9th, 11th, and 12th.
In a message to fans, the band’s Philip Selway said: “Last year, we got together to rehearse, just for the hell of it. After a seven year pause, it felt really good to play the songs again and reconnect with a musical identity that has become lodged deep inside all five of us.”
He continued: “It also made us want to play some shows together, so we hope you can make it to one of the upcoming dates. For now, it will just be these ones but who knows where this will all lead.”
How to get tickets for Radiohead’s tour
To access tickets, fans need to register on the band’s official website between 10am BST on September 5th and 10pm BST on September 7th. Tickets will then go on sale on September 12th.
The registration method has been introduced to combat touting. Additionally, fans will be able to purchase a maximum of four tickets for one of the dates only, which Radiohead hope will allow as many people as possible to attend.
They will also allocate a greater share of tickets to those living nearer the venue of each show. Their website also states they “have allocations for those who wish to travel inside Europe and for those outside Europe”. The message continues, “Our aim is to distribute tickets according to demand in a fair and geographically convenient way.”
Ticket prices for Radiohead’s new tour
Radiohead have confirmed that standing tickets for their forthcoming tour will cost €97 for the Madrid dates, €100 for Bologna, £85 for London, 775 DKK for Copenhagen and €110 in Berlin, plus fees.
Additionally, there will be a £1 donation to charity added to/included in the ticket price. In London, this will be donated to the LIVE Trust and in the rest of Europe, the donation will go to Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF). Radiohead have also pledged to match the total raised to Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders with a donation.
How Radiohead teased the tour
News of the tour broke on September 2nd, when fans flocked to Reddit to share flyers that appeared in each of the five European cities that Radiohead are visiting on tour.
Furthermore, earlier this year, Radiohead’s management seemingly confirmed that the band would return to the stage at some point in the future. In an effort to aid fire relief in Los Angeles, the management company Blueyed Pictures said that they were willing to donate “four tickets to a Radiohead show of your choice”, despite the band not announcing anything at the time. The tickets are said to be valid up until January 2026.
This came after Radiohead members formed the company RHEUK2025 at the start of 2025, adding more fuel to the fire that they would be staging a comeback.
