Which City Should You Choose to See Radiohead?
🇪🇸 Madrid, Spain
Madrid’s rock spirit blends perfectly with the city’s vibrant energy. Before or after the show, stop by Málaga8, a must-visit for musicians and collectors. For an alternative vibe, check out Tununtunumba, a hub for music lovers. And of course, no trip to Madrid is complete without sharing tapas paired with local wine or vermouth in the buzzing bars of the historic center.
🇮🇹 Bologna, Italy
Bologna breathes culture and youth, with one of the world’s oldest universities at its heart. Rock is part of the city’s identity too. For collectors, Semm Music Store is the place to find records and merchandise, while the historic Sergio Tomassone shop is a reference for instruments. Between record hunting, treat yourself to a steaming bowl of authentic tortellini in brodo—a true Bolognese classic.
🇬🇧 London, England
London is a rock mecca, home to legends like The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Clash, and Iron Maiden. To soak up the atmosphere, the Hard Rock Cafe is a fun stop with hearty food and memorabilia. Collectors will want to explore The Gibson Garage, the Rolling Stones Store, and Third Man Records for vinyl, instruments, and exclusive finds.
🇩🇰 Copenhagen, Denmark
Copenhagen gave the world heavyweights like Mercyful Fate, D-A-D, and Volbeat. To feel that energy up close, the Zeppelin Rock Bar is a must, known for its classic rock playlists and lively atmosphere. For those who want to bring a piece of the city home, Woodstock Guitars and Musik Mick are treasure troves of instruments and collectibles.
🇩🇪 Berlin, Germany
Berlin is a city of history and rebellion, birthplace of bands like Rammstein, Die Ärzte, and Tangerine Dream. The Ramones Museum is a pilgrimage site for punk fans, while Rockcafe Halford keeps the underground spirit alive. To top it off, walk past the former apartment of David Bowie, who left an indelible mark on the city in the 1970s.
Is It Worth Traveling to See Radiohead?
Absolutely. Radiohead are one of the most influential bands of the past three decades, and this historic tour promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Formed in Oxford in 1989, the band has consistently pushed musical boundaries—from the early impact of Creep (1993), to the visionary OK Computer (1997), the experimental Kid A (2000), and the groundbreaking release of In Rainbows(2007). Their creativity and influence on modern rock are undeniable.
At the same time, Radiohead have just released Hail to the Thief Live Recordings 2003–2009, a historic collection now available on streaming and in limited vinyl and CD editions.
And as every fan knows: it’s not just about the concert itself, but about everything that comes with being there. 🙂
