Radiohead have officially ignited global excitement by confirming a massive world tour set for 2026, marking their long-awaited return to the stage after years of quiet anticipation. The announcement has already sent fans into a frenzy, with speculation turning into celebration as the band prepares to revisit their iconic catalog while hinting at fresh sonic directions. Known for transforming every tour into an immersive, boundary-pushing experience, Radiohead’s 2026 run promises to blend haunting visuals, experimental soundscapes, and emotionally charged performances that only they can deliver.
The tour will span multiple continents, bringing Radiohead to some of the world’s most iconic cities and arenas. Confirmed stops include London, Manchester, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, Mexico City, São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Tokyo, Osaka, Sydney, and Melbourne, with additional cities expected to be announced. Each show is expected to feature a carefully curated setlist that moves seamlessly between classic anthems like “Paranoid Android” and “Karma Police” and deeper cuts that longtime fans have been hoping to hear live again.
Sources close to the band suggest that the 2026 tour will place a strong emphasis on atmosphere and storytelling, with stage designs evolving throughout the show to mirror the emotional arc of the music. Thom Yorke’s unmistakable vocals, Jonny Greenwood’s textured guitar work, and the band’s meticulous attention to detail are expected to elevate every performance into something cinematic. For many fans, this tour represents more than concerts—it’s a rare opportunity to reconnect with a band that has consistently reshaped modern music.
The Radiohead 2026 tour is scheduled to kick off on May 14, 2026, in London, before moving across Europe in late May and June, North America in July and August, and concluding with Asia and Australia in September and October 2026, making it one of the most extensive and anticipated tours of the year.
