Electronic pioneers Kraftwerk have announced an extensive UK & Ireland tour, their first since 2017. They’ll play a pair of shows at London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall on June 4 & 5, 2026, as well as gigs in Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool, and more. On the second night in London, Kraftwerk will also play two separate gigs (one at 6pm, and one at 10pm)

Despite this being their first full tour around these parts since 2017, Kraftwerk did play a one-off show in Milton Keynes last summer as part of the ‘Multimedia Tour’, which continues into this year.

The Multimedia Tour has been running since 2012, and is described as ‘part performance, part digital installation’ from the legendary German band. It’s formed of a 3D show that sees the band play material from across their entire career, from their self-titled 1970 debut to 1974’s classic Autobahn to 2003′ Tour de France.
