Electronic music pioneers Kraftwerk have unveiled details of their first UK and Ireland tour since 2017.
The run of dates is part of their ongoing Multimedia tour, which has been rolling on since 2012. The current 2025 leg began with a lengthy trip across North America, starting in Philadelphia on March 5th and concluding in Dallas on April 24th.
This summer, they also played a select number of festivals and outdoor shows in the UK and Europe, including Forever Now at Milton Keynes, Jazz Open in Stuttgart, Teatro Greco in Taormina, as well as OFF Festival in Katowice.
This winter, they will embark on their mainland European leg, which includes an extensive run across their native Germany, and visits to the Netherlands, Latvia, Finland, and more countries.
Then, their return to the UK and Ireland will kick off in Dublin on May 17th, with stops to follow in Belfast, Wolverhampton, Manchester, Glasgow, Stockton, Sheffield, Brighton, Bristol, Bournemouth, London, Liverpool, Nottingham and Edinburgh.
Tickets go on sale at 9am on October 10th, 2025.
While they continue to tour, the electronic icons haven’t released a studio album since Tour De France Soundtracks in 2003, with their live sets relying on classic material from beloved records like Autobahn, Trans Europe Express and Computer World.
