The band were forced to postpone their first two nights in the city due to their frontman's illness.

Radiohead have confirmed their 2025 tour will resume tonight (4th December).

The No Surprises outfit were forced to postpone their first two dates in Copenhagen on 1st and 2nd December, due to their frontman Thom Yorke being diagnosed with an "extreme throat infection".

However, the band vowed to recommence their dates at the Royal Arena later in the week, while returning to Denmark at the end of their tour.

Now, fans who were anxiously waiting to see if Yorke would get better in time can breathe a sigh of relief as the band have taken to their Instagram stories to confirm: "Happy to report were back on for today's show".

Announcing the disappointing news of their postponement on Monday (1st December), the band said: "Radiohead are gutted to have to announce the postponement of the first two Copenhagen dates this week - tonight, Dec 1st and tomorrow, Dec 2nd. The shows have been rescheduled for Dec 15th and 16th respectively.

"Tickets for the shows will be automatically transferred to the new corresponding date. If you require a refund, please contact your point of purchase."

They continued: "We are devastated to have to postpone these two shows at such short notice but Thom has been diagnosed with an extreme throat infection which has made it impossible for him to sing.

"Treatment is underway and we’re hopeful Thom will recover in time to play the final two Copenhagen shows on Dec 4th and 5th, and all four Berlin shows, starting on Dec 8th.

We have been so blown away by the audience reactions on these dates and are loving being back on stage again; needless to say, we feel terrible that we have been forced to postpone these shows.”

Fans who were set to see the band gathered in the city to commiserate and sing some of the band's classic tracks together.
