Overview
- Playing their first concert since 2018, Radiohead opened Nov. 4 at Madrid’s Movistar Arena with a 25-song, career-spanning set that revived “Sit Down. Stand Up.” for the first time since 2004 and “Subterranean Homesick Alien” for the first time since 2017.
- The show unveiled a new in-the-round production with a circular center stage framed by mesh and LED video panels that rose and lowered throughout the performance.
- The touring lineup expanded to include percussionist Chris Vatalaro as a second drummer alongside Philip Selway, with the encore closing on “Karma Police.”
- No new songs were performed, marking the band’s first tour without new studio material, with reports that a 65-song pool was rehearsed for rotating setlists.
- The limited European run spans 20 shows through Dec. 12 with multi-night residencies in Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen, and Berlin, using pre-registration ticketing and per-ticket donations to Médecins Sans Frontières across Europe and to the LIVE Trust in London.
