Kraftwerk Celebrates 50 Years of 'Radio-Activity' with Dolby Atmos and Extended Tour

Kraftwerk presents a vivid reissue of 'Radio-Activity' to mark its 50th anniversary, breathing new life using the original 16-track master tapes for a richer soundscape. Founder Ralf Hütter collaborates with Fritz Hilpert, creating an evocative Dolby Atmos Mix.

The album drops on May 15 with a Blu-ray audio disc, an exclusive booklet, and a special vinyl edition. As demand skyrockets, Kraftwerk extends their UK and Ireland 'Multimedia' tour, blending performance and digital art in cities like Dublin and London.

Kraftwerk short-circuits demand, wires in two extra UK dates for 2026 tour

Interpolating their legacy like a vintage synth reconnected to fresh electricity, Kraftwerk expand their 2026 ‘Multimedia’ UK and Ireland tour with two extra dates, prompted by what their press release dryly clocks as “exceptional demand.” The duo extends their stop in Manchester with a second night at O2 Apollo and adds a late-night performance in London at Royal Albert Hall, following a 6pm show earlier that day.

The tour, their first in the region since 2017, unfolds across 15 cities beginning May 17 in Dublin and closing June 9 in Edinburgh.
