Radiohead Announce 21‑Date 2027 Residencies in Australia and Japan

The band and promoters are using a registration system and a matched $2 per‑ticket charity pledge to curb scalpers and support Australian conservation groups.

Overview

  • Radiohead officially revealed the 21‑date run on Monday, with ticket registration opening the same day and closing on Thursday, Sept. 10, and the band saying these will be their only concerts in 2027.
  • The itinerary features 16 Australian arena shows—four nights at Perth’s RAC Arena, six at Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena and six at Sydney’s Afterpay Arena—followed by five nights at GMO Arena in Saitama, Japan.
  • Tickets will be distributed via a timed registration on Radiohead’s site rather than a first‑come sale, with promoters saying every entry in the window will be treated equally and with an explicit aim to reduce automated and unauthorised purchases.
  • Purchases are limited to a maximum of four tickets per registrant per city, and each ticket will include a $2 donation to Greenpeace Australia Pacific and the Australian Marine Conservation Society that Radiohead will match.
  • The run continues the band’s recent shift to multi‑night residencies and a roughly 20‑show‑a‑year, region‑focused touring plan, which makes these rare Australian dates—their first full‑band visit since 2012—likely to see intense demand from fans.
