Few bands are loved in the UK quite like the Killers. You only have to watch the band’s rendition of ‘Mr Brightside’ at Reading Festival last year to gauge just how much Brits adore them: needless to say, a Killers show in the UK is a proper event.
The Killers are currently touring the UK as part of their Rebel Diamonds Tour (which saw them play Manchester the other week) – and now it’s London’s turn. Brandon Flowers and the band are playing the O2 Arena for a whopping six nights over the next week or so.
Planning on heading down to Greenwich to see smash hits like ‘Somebody Told Me’, ‘When You Were Young’ and ‘All These Things That I’ve Done’ live and in the flesh? Here’s everything you need to know about the shows, from doors to support acts.

Expect the band to come on at around 9pm every night. However, on July 7 the Killers may take to the stage earlier (at around 8.30pm) due to the O2 having an earlier curfew on Sunday.

What are the band’s remaining 2024 UK dates?
There aren’t any. After their London shows, the Killers’ Rebel Diamonds Tour leaves the UK for Spain, Japan, then finally North America.
What are the reviews saying so far?
If you’re heading to the show, it’s going to be one hell of a night. The Standard gave the gig a glowing five stars, lauding the musicians for ‘giving more bang for your buck than any other modern band’, while calling Brandon Flowers ‘one of the century’s great frontmen’. Hats off to the Killers.
