Radiohead fans are convinced a long-awaited reunion is finally on the horizon after a wave of mysterious gig flyers surfaced across Europe, pointing to shows later this year.
The flyers, spotted in several major cities, list multiple concerts including a run of four nights at London’s O2 Arena on November 21, 22, 24 and 25. Other suggested stops include Denmark and Madrid, with speculation that more European dates are planned for autumn 2025.
If true, these would be Radiohead’s first live shows since 2018.
A familiar signal: new LLP registration
The rumours gained weight when a new company, RHEUK25 LLP, was quietly registered on March 10, with all five members of the band listed as officers: Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Ed O’Brien and Philip Selway.
This type of move has often preceded new activity. For example:
“Dawn Chorus LLP” was set up before the release of A Moon Shaped Pool in 2016.
“Spin With A Grin LLP” appeared prior to the Kid A Mnesia reissue in 2021.
The latest filing has reignited speculation that Radiohead could be preparing both a tour and possibly new music, while also retaining control outside the traditional record label system.
Charity auction reveals hidden clue
Further evidence came via a charity auction at Palisades High School in Los Angeles, where Radiohead’s management company, Blueyed Pictures, Inc., donated four tickets to “a Radiohead concert of your choice.” The listing noted that dates could be selected “based on the band’s tour schedule,” strongly implying shows are already in the works.
According to Resident Advisor, an insider also suggested that several European cities will host concerts this autumn.
Health, anniversaries and timing
The timing of a comeback would be especially significant for guitarist Jonny Greenwood, who was hospitalised with a serious infection last year, leading to the cancellation of The Smile’s tour dates.
The band has also been looking back at its legacy, marking the 30th anniversary of The Bends with a commemorative Instagram post earlier this year. Fans believe the milestone may form part of the upcoming live return.
No official word from Radiohead
For now, Radiohead has remained silent. No statement has been issued on the flyers or the LLP registration. But with mounting clues, whispers of European dates, and fans reporting sightings across several cities, anticipation for the group’s first shows in seven years is growing rapidly.
