After four years, Radiohead will finally hold a concert. Radiohead recently announced their first world tour and concert dates in the United States.
Radiohead will have its first concert since 2012 and made the official announcement on their website on March 14, 2016. Based on the schedule, the Radiohead concert tour will start on May 20, 2016 at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam and will end on Oct. 4, 2016 at the Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City.
UPI notes that Radiohead’s North American concert will only comprise of four locations, including their Mexico City performance. Radiohead will have a concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City from July 26 to July 27, followed by a performance at the Oshega Music and Arts Festival in Montreal from July 29 to July 31. A few days after, Radiohead will perform at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on Aug. 4 and Aug. 8.
"These are all the headline shows that the band will play in 2016. To minimize secondary ticketing and to give more fans a chance to buy a ticket at its intended price, restrictions will apply, including a limit of 2 tickets per order on all shows," Radiohead stated about the concert and ticket sales strategy to avoid second-hand transactions.
Radiohead announced their world concert tour after they agreed in January 2016 to perform at three music festivals. These are the Primavera Sound festival in Spain from June 2 to 4, the OpenAir St. Gallen festival in Switzerland on July 2, and the NOS Alive festival in Portugal on July 8.
Radiohead fans can look forward to the band potentially playing many of their hit songs at the Radiohead world tour such as “Creep,” “High and Dry” and “Paranoid Android,” among others. They may also showcase a new single.
Aside from the Radiohead concert tour, there are rumors that the band is working on a new album. Radiohead registered a new company, Dawn Chorus LLP, in October 2015. The same approach was used by Radiohead before launching their albums in 2007 and 2011. Fans have yet to wait for an official announcement.
More updates and details on the Radiohead concert tour are expected soon.
