Radiohead's Weird Ticket System: Register or Miss Out!

Radiohead will play 16 dates across Australia in May and June 2027, marking their first shows there in 15 years. To secure tickets, fans must register their interest by 5pm AEST on Thursday, September 10, 2027. This process, implemented to ensure fair access and minimize bot purchases, requires submitting full name, email, phone number, country, and desired cities via the band's, Frontier Touring's, or Ticketek's website.

Registration is a prerequisite for purchase eligibility, but a successful submission does not guarantee a ticket; selection will be made randomly. Those not selected will be placed on a waitlist for potential future releases. Successful registrants will receive an email on September 11, 2027, with further instructions, and a unique purchase link and code will be sent by 7am on September 15, 2027.

The purchase window opens at 9am (local time) on September 15, 2027, and closes on September 17, 2027, or when tickets sell out. Ticket prices range from $139 to $349, with a $2 charity donation included per ticket for Greenpeace Australia Pacific and the Australian Marine Conservation Society. Radiohead will match these donations. The band also humorously offered a "Fast Track Status" for $649, which offers no actual fast-track benefits but includes premium seating and exclusive merchandise.
