Radiohead look like they might be up to something. Flyers have started appearing around several European cities that seem to indicate the band might just be playing their first shows in seven years.
Fans of the band across several European cities have taken to the internet to post images of flyers that suggest the band will be playing shows across the continent at the end of this year. These flyers list locations including Berlin, Madrid, Copenhagen, and… London. According to the posters, the London dates are November 21, 22, 24, & 25. Other posts appear to suggest that they will then move on to Berlin in December, which also looks to have four shows listed on the flyer.

Should these flyers hold legitimate information, it would go against Jonny Greenwood saying the band had ‘no plans’ for 2025 in an interview with NME late last year. The band did, however, form a new legal entity, RHEUK25, back in March this year, so we wouldn’t rule out that there could be something on the cards; we’ll have to wait and see whether it comes in the form of these dates, other dates, or no dates at all!
When did Radiohead last perform live?
Radiohead last played a show in 2018, as part of the A Moon Shaped Pool touring cycle at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Their last shows in the UK were a trio of appearances at TRSNMT Festival, Manchester’s Old Trafford Stadium, and Glastonbury Festival. Their last shows in London were almost a decade ago, with three intimate shows at The Roundhouse. Their last arena show in the city was well over a decade ago, playing twice at The O2 in 2012.
All this is to say that it’s been a long time coming, with plenty of rumours of shows across the way, and it looks like Radiohead might be playing shows again. We won’t know until we see the official writing, though, so keep those fingers crossed if you’ve been waiting all this time.
The flyers suggest Radiohead will play in London on November 21, 22, 24, & 25. There is no official announcement on whether the flyers for the shows across Europe are legitimate.
