Enter Shikari today announce a very special intimate show, at Satan’s Hollow in Manchester on 9th April. This venue has a long-standing history with the band; it’s 20 years to the day on 10th April, when they played both here and in Manchester for the first time! Tickets for this unmissable show will be available to buy on a first come first served basis, to those who register here up until 9.30am tomorrow. A ticket access link will then be sent to whichever email has been used to register at 10am tomorrow. Enter Shikari will be joined by Liverpool’s East Exchange as support.
The band have explained, “Manchester’s a city that means a lot to us. The Satan’s Hollow show back in April ’06 was the first sense we got that “something” was “happening”. A queue around the block and total chaos inside. We’ve had a lot of memorable shows in Manchester since then (and in November we’ll play our biggest ever UK headline show there!) but for some reason that night at Satan’s Hollow kept coming up in conversation, so the anniversary show was just too tempting”.
Earlier this year, Enter Shikari announced a UK and EU headline arena tour for November, their biggest yet, a headline run around Australia in May, and also around North America in June! The EU dates kick off on 3rd November at the Sporthalle in Hamburg, and include the band’s biggest ever German headline show, at Düsseldorf’s Mitsubishi Halle, boasting a capacity of 7500! The band will then begin the UK leg of the tour in Nottingham at the Motorpoint Arena on 13th November. Gigs in cities including Cardiff, Hull, Glasgow and Manchester will follow, before ending with not one but two shows at London’s Alexandra Palace on 20th and 21st November! They will be joined by Holding Absence and The Callous Daoboys as support for both the EU and UK leg.
Every ticket sold for the band’s UK arena tour dates will include a £1 donation to the Music Venue Trust, supporting grassroots music venues under threat of closure in the UK. Enter Shikari were the first artist to implement the scheme which is one very close to their hearts, with ticket sales from their 2024 arena tour carrying the donation, paving the way for the likes of Sam Fender and Coldplay to follow suit with their own generous donations.
Before the UK and EU run, Enter Shikari will head to Australia in May and play shows in Newcastle, Frankson and Fremantle, as well as Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane amongst others. American-Canadian artist grandson will join the tour as support, on all but one of these dates. Shikari will play a headline tour in North America shortly after this, in June. All dates, information and tickets for all live dates can be found here.
