Radiohead fans have issued an urgent warning ahead of the band’s highly-anticipated O2 Arena, London gigs.

In case you missed it, the High & Dry hitmakers are coming to the capital for four huge concerts, and resale tickets are still available via StubHub, Viagogo, and Ticombo.

It’s been a long time coming, too. Radiohead haven’t performed together since August, 2018, when their Moon Shaped Pool tour came to a close.

Since then, frontman Thom Yorke and guitarist Jonny Greenwood joined forces with Tom Skinner formed new band The Smile. Radiohead on the other hand have not produced new music since 2016.

Speaking about the decision to go on tour again, the band said: “Last year, we got together to rehearse, just for the hell of it. After a seven-year pause, it felt really good to play the songs again and reconnect with a musical identity that has become lodged deep inside all five of us.”

In the countdown to the shows, Radiohead fans have issued an urgent warning to those attending the O2 Arena gigs, as merchandise queues are long and slow.

On Reddit, one said: “I spent an hour and a half in line to buy merch, it was quite slow. The concert starts at 8:30pm and I arrived at 5pm. After that, I had to queue a little longer to enter the venue, but it was quick.”

Another warned, “It’s woefully understaffed and slow AF.”

A third decided to go early to make sure not to miss out. “Hmm, I guess I’ll just go super super early. Thank you for the info!”

Doors open at 6pm and the band is expected to start at 8.30pm.

It also made us want to play some shows together, so we hope you can make it to one of the upcoming dates. For now, it will just be these ones – but who knows where this will all lead.”

What will the Radiohead set list look like?

The set list has not been confirmed, but their latest shows will give a good indication of what to expect on the big night.

According to an interview with NME, the band decide the set list just hours before the start of the show, and they have whittled down it down to 65 options, as they have ‘too many songs’ to choose from.

Just don’t expect to see Creep on the set list, as the band famously avoid playing the 1993 hit song on stage. Below, you can find a set list from their latest gig on November 8, 2025.
