Kraftwerk announces 2017 UK summer tour
German electronic and pop music band Kraftwerk has confirmed it will kick off an 11-date UK tour in June next year, with speculation that the trip could also end in the group's debut at Glastonbury.
The UK summer tour, which will start off at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall on June 9, will mark Kraftwerk's first full tour of Britain since 2004 and will see them perform their unique brand of 3D concerts, which they first played in 2013 at New York's Museum Of Modern Art (via NME).
The tour will continue with appearances at Edinburgh Usher Hall (10), Liverpool Philharmonic Hall (11), Birmingham Symphony Hall (13), Gateshead Sage (14), Sheffield City Hall (15), Bristol Colston Hall (17), and Nottingham Royal Concert Hall (18).
The last two shows are scheduled to take place at Manchester Bridgwater Hall and London Royal Albert Hall, on June 19 and June 21-22 respectively -- just a week before Glastonbury -- prompting reports that the band could be on track to finish its UK run with a first appearance at the famous music festival.
