Radiohead’s long-anticipated return to touring after seven years was set to begin tonight, December 1, in Copenhagen. However, the band announced that the first two performances of their four-night stay in the Danish capital have been postponed.
According to the statement, frontman Thom Yorke is suffering from a throat infection, which forced the delay to allow him time to recover. New dates for the rescheduled shows will be confirmed once Yorke’s health improves.
“We’re very sorry to have to postpone these shows,” the band said in a message to fans.
The tour marks Radiohead’s first live shows since 2018, and fans had been eagerly awaiting their return to the stage.
The remaining Copenhagen performances later in the week are still on the schedule, though the band has not ruled out further changes depending on Yorke’s recovery.
