Radiohead will not perform as planned in Copenhagen, Denmark, tonight and tomorrow, December 1st and 2nd. The recently reactivated art-rock band has rescheduled the shows to later this month as singer Thom Yorke recovers from a severe throat infection.
“We are devastated to have to postpone these two shows at such short notice,” the band wrote online, “but Thom has been diagnosed with an extreme throat infection which has made it impossible for him to sing. Treatment is underway and we’re hopeful Thom will recover in time to play the final two Copenhagen shows on Dec 4th and 5th, and all four Berlin shows, starting on Dec 8th. We have been so blown away by the audience reactions on these dates and are loving being back on stage again; needless to say, we feel terrible that we have been forced to postpone these shows.”
The shows originally scheduled for December 1st and 2nd will now occur on December 15th and 16th, respectively. Tickets for the shows will be automatically transferred to the new corresponding date. Those who cannot make the new dates can contact their point of purchase for a refund.

Radiohead plan to return to the stage on Thursday, December 4th, and Friday, December 5th at Copenhagen’s Royal Arena. After that, the band will travel to Berlin’s Uber Arena for shows on December 8th, 9th, 11th, and 12th, originally scheduled to close the tour. Instead, Radiohead will loop back around to Copenhagen on the 15th and 16th to wrap its first tour in seven years. All shows are sold out.
The band just wrapped a quartet of shows at London’s O2 Arena, where Radiohead broke Metallica‘s attendance record set in 2017. Radiohead drew over 22,000 attendees to each show, with the final night on November 25th bringing in 22,355 attendees, according to the venue.
After four sensational sold-out shows at The O2, @radiohead have made history with the highest ever attendance within the arena. Previously set by Metallica in 2017, the band have now surpassed that attendance figure four times, setting a new record of 22,355 👏 pic.twitter.com/s3EuPYlhYo

In addition to record-breaking crowds, the 2025 Radiohead European tour has seen the band take a deep dive into its vast catalog. At the first few shows in Italy and Spain, Radiohead dusted off songs from The Bends (“Just”, “(Nice Dream)”), In Rainbows (“Jigsaw Falling Into Place”), and Hail To the Thief (“Sit Down. Stand Up”) not seen in upwards of 20 years. Revisit coverage of the tour opener here.
