After years of radio silence, Radiohead are finally back — and fans are losing their minds. The legendary British band confirmed a world tour earlier this year, including a rare four-night residency at London’s O2 Arena this November. It’s their first run of gigs in nearly a decade, which made ticket demand nothing short of apocalyptic.
A Decade Away, Then Gone in Seconds
When tickets went live, they were only available to fans who had registered in advance. But even with that barrier in place, everything vanished almost instantly. The O2 holds around 20,000 people, meaning about 80,000 spots total across the four nights (November 21, 22, 24, and 25). That still wasn’t enough.
Within hours, the official sale was tapped out — and fans left empty-handed have since been flooding resale sites, hoping to secure a seat at what already feels like one of the biggest live events of 2025.
Where the Tickets Are Now
If you missed the initial drop, resale is pretty much the only option right now. Big-ticket platforms like Viagogo, StubHub, and Vivid Seats are loaded with listings. But prices reflect the frenzy: at the time of writing, entry-level resale tickets are going for around £400 each.
Here are the current options:
Viagogo
– Buy Radiohead resale tickets here
StubHub
– Buy Radiohead resale tickets here
Vivid Seats

There’s still a slim chance that the official seller, AXS
, could release more tickets later. But given the demand, those would likely vanish in seconds too.
The Bigger Picture on Resale
The Radiohead ticket rush is the latest reminder of how brutal the live music economy has become. Even with fan-registration systems and venue caps, bots and scalpers still find ways in — leaving hardcore fans forced into the inflated resale market.
For Radiohead, though, the hype feels inevitable. This isn’t just another tour — it’s a band returning after years of silence, a once-in-a-decade opportunity to see Thom Yorke and company back in their natural habitat: on stage, live, and loud.
