Radiohead are seemingly teasing their first gig in seven years across the UK and Europe.

Radiohead’s last live performance was on August 1, 2018 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, marking the end of their ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ tour in support of their album of the same name.
The band have been characteristically coy about their future plans since then, though fans around the UK and Europe have now reported spotting flyers for live shows later this year. A number of Radiohead fans have since taken to Reddit to share images they’ve captured of concert flyers in the wild.
The flyers list dates in London, Denmark, Madrid and more. The London dates are listed for November 21, 22, 24 and 25 this year at The O2.
NME has reached out to representatives of the band for comment. In the meantime, check out a number of fan-provided flyers below.

While nothing has been confirmed, a tour wouldn’t be a complete shock to several fans as the band had formed a new legal entity in March, suggesting they were planning significant activity in 2025.
Radiohead created a limited liability partnership (LLP) with the name RHEUK25 (now seemingly pointing at the aforementioned European and UK dates), which is something they have done a few times in the past ahead of an album, tour or reissue announcement.
LLPs allow Radiohead to operate their business affairs independently, without relying on the framework of record labels and external companies. All five members of Radiohead – Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Ed O’Brien and Philip Selway – are listed as officers in the RHEUK25 LLP.
After registering the LLP, Radiohead auctioned four tickets to a “Radiohead concert of your choice” to a Los Angeles fire relief auction run by Palisades High School.

Last year, Yorke made headlines by saying he “really doesn’t give a fuck” if fans want Radiohead to return. When asked by Australian outlet Double J about his thoughts on speculation over the band’s future, he replied: “I am not aware of it and don’t really give a flying fuck.”
“No offence to anyone and err, thanks for caring,” he continued. “But I think we’ve earned the right to do what makes sense to us without having to explain ourselves or be answerable to anyone else’s historical idea of what we should be doing.”
That came after bassist Colin Greenwood caught up with NME around the release of his new photo book How To Disappear, and opened up about the band’s reunion rehearsals over summer 2024.
Before then, his brother Jonny shared with NME that he found the rehearsals “fun and natural”, but went on to add that there are “no plans” for anything Radiohead-related in 2025, as the members are focused on “individual projects”.
Last month, the rock icons announced a new live album entitled ‘Hail to the Thief Live Recordings 2003-2009’. Available now digitally, and available to pre-order as a one-off pressing that will be released on October 31, the album comprises performances of songs in London, Amsterdam, Buenos Aires, and Dublin between 2003 and 2009.

The revisiting of ‘Hail To The Thief’ comes as frontman Yorke recently co-created the critically acclaimed Hamlet Hail to the Thief stage production. This was an adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet, set to a deconstructed score of reworked songs from the 2003 Radiohead album.
The new live record from Radiohead comes shortly after the band opened the doors to their new exhibition ‘This Is What You Get’, which is held at The Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. Open now, it showcases the artwork of Radiohead done by Yorke and the band’s longtime artist Stanley Donwood.
Over 180 objects are on display, including the original paintings that later became iconic album covers, unpublished drawings, lyrics in sketchbooks, digital compositions, etchings and more. Visit here for tickets and more information – it runs until 11 January ,2026.
