The Killers announce huge Ashton Gate Stadium gig
Posted on: 15 Nov 2019The Killers are coming out of their cage, and they’ve been doing just fine: the American rock band have announced they will be performing in Bristol next summer, as part of a UK stadium tour.
The Killers will play a huge headline gig at Ashton Gate Stadium (which has a capacity of 32,000) on Tuesday, 9 June.
The string of tour dates accompanies the announcement of the band’s sixth studio album, Imploding The Mirage, which is due for release in Spring 2020.
It’s the band’s biggest UK and Ireland tour to date, and it’ll be the first time they will perform here in Bristol.
At Ashton Gate, The Killers will be joined by special guests Manic Street Preachers. The Welsh rock band is responsible for the seminal album, This Is My Truth, Tell Me Yours.
Tickets go on sale at 9:00 on Friday, 22 November. Get yours here.
Responsible for anthems 'Mr Brightside' and 'Human', The Killers have earned themselves cult status over the years.
Seven-time Grammy and BRIT award nominees and NME's 'Best International Band' of 2005, 2008, 2009, and 2013, The Killers' Americana-inspired sound spans heartland rock, new wave revivalism and indie synth pop.
Last year, Ashton Gate Stadium welcomed the likes of the Spice Girls and Take That, who performed high-demand headline shows. We'd expect no different from The Killers' first-time Bristol show!
