Radiohead Announces First European Tour in Seven Years with Multiple Dates

Radiohead, one of the most influential British bands, has revealed plans for their first tour in seven years. The group, known for their groundbreaking music and artistic innovation, will perform across five European cities including London, Berlin, Bologna, Copenhagen, and Madrid between November and December 2025. The London shows at the O2 Arena are scheduled for four nights on 21, 22, 24, and 25 November. The band last toured in 2018, and their drummer Philip Selway shared that the group reunited to rehearse in 2024 just for the joy of playing together again. This reunion reignited their passion for live performances, leading to the current tour announcement. Since their last tour, frontman Thom Yorke and guitarist Jonny Greenwood have been active with side project The Smile, though the latter faced serious health issues in 2024. Other members have pursued solo and collaborative projects. Despite past uncertainty expressed by Yorke about a live return, recent actions such as registering a new LLP and auctioning concert tickets hinted at upcoming activity. Fans can register for tickets starting 5 September 2025. Radiohead’s continued relevance is highlighted by the viral resurgence of their 1997 track ‘Let Down’ and new stage adaptations of their album Hail to the Thief. This tour marks an important moment, celebrating their legacy and ongoing influence in contemporary music.
