Kraftwerk announce UK and Ireland tour dates for 2026 – how to get tickets

It marks their first UK tour in nearly a decade

Kraftwerk have announced details of a headline UK and Ireland tour - and this is how to get tickets.

The group will embark on the Multimedia Tour across 2026, marking their first run of UK shows in nine years.

It'll begin on 17 May in Dublin, and head to Belfast, Wolverhampton, Manchester, Glasgow, Stockton and Sheffield.

They'll then take the tour to venues in Brighton, Bristol, Bournemouth, Liverpool, Nottingham, and Edinburgh.

Plus the group will headline two nights at London's Royal Albert Hall on 4-5 June.

The Multimedia Tour first began in 2012 at New York's Museum of Modern Art and is described as "part performance, part digital installation".

The 3D shows see the band playing music from across their career, including from 1974's Autobahn, 1977's Trans Europe Express, and 1981's Computer World.

The German electronic pioneers took their current tour around North America earlier this year, including a set at Coachella, and played a one-off show at Forever Now Festival in Milton Keynes.
