RADIOHEAD BREAK THE RECORD FOR THE HIGHEST EVER ATTENDANCE AT THE O2

Over 22,200 fans attended each night with the venue hitting a record of 22,355 fans on the final show

London, 28 November, 2025: After four sensational sold-out shows at The O2, the world’s most popular live entertainment arena, Radiohead have made history with the highest ever attendance within the arena. Previously set by Metallica in 2017, the band have now surpassed that attendance figure four times, setting a new record of 22,355.

Each of the four UK exclusive shows held in the round on 21, 22, 24 and 25 November 2025, saw over 22,200 fans in attendance, with each night breaking the previous night’s record.

Christian D’Acuna, Senior Programming Director of The O2, said: “These past four record-breakings nights will go down in the venue’s history, with Radiohead breaking the attendance records each night. We knew how special these exclusive shows would be and we’re so grateful to the band for bringing them to The O2. It’s been a true honour to host them, and each night they played different set lists spanning their incredible back catalogue. These shows will be remembered for years to come.”

100% of the show ticketing was managed by AXS, allowing for ethically capped resale, which severely limited unauthorised secondary marketing activity. The collaborative process between the artist team, agent, promoter, venue and AXS, led to a ticket purchase flow which ensured tickets got in the hands of real fans, and meant that over 90,000 attendees experiencing the band’s unique return after a seven-year pause.
