Enter Shikari Announce Biggest Ever UK & European Arena Tour

Genre-defying rock band Enter Shikari have announced a UK and European headline arena tour for November, marking the biggest tour of their career to date. The run follows their recent arena success and will be accompanied by a separate headline tour of Australia in May.

The European leg of the tour begins on 3rd November at Sporthalle in Hamburg and includes the band’s largest-ever German headline performance at Düsseldorf’s Mitsubishi Halle, with a capacity of 7,500. The UK leg launches on 13th November at Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena, before continuing through cities including Cardiff, Hull, Glasgow and Manchester. The tour will conclude with two consecutive headline shows at London’s Alexandra Palace on 20th and 21st November. Support across both the EU and UK dates will come from Holding Absence and The Callous Daoboys.

Frontman Rou Reynolds said of the tour, which the band describe as their most ambitious yet:

“November will bring our biggest arena tour ever. With a completely new show. I cannot say much yet but I can tell you now it will be our most thrilling. To get to play Ally Pally two nights in a row is going to be something of a fantasy. I bloody love that building and we will make sure we have the variety and theatrics to do the place justice. The tour also includes our biggest ever Belgian show, and first ever German headline arena show, which we’re all buzzing for.”

As with their previous UK arena tour, every ticket sold for the UK dates will include a £1 donation to the Music Venue Trust, supporting grassroots music venues across the country. Enter Shikari were the first artists to implement this initiative on a large-scale arena tour, later followed by artists including Sam Fender and Coldplay.

Ahead of the November run, Enter Shikari will tour Australia, performing in cities including Newcastle, Frankston, Fremantle, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, with American-Canadian artist grandson supporting most dates. Presales for the Australian tour begin Thursday, with general sale opening Monday 2nd February.

The November arena tour will be Enter Shikari’s first since their 2024 A Kiss For The Whole World tour, which celebrated the band’s first UK Number One album and included their debut headline performance at Wembley Arena.

General tickets for the UK and EU dates go on sale Friday at 10am local time from here.
