A Tribute to The Killers
Saturday, October 31, 2026
This is a celebration of the band that brought us Mr Brightside, Somebody Told Me and Human. The Killers formed in Las Vegas in 2001. Their debut album Hot Fuss sold over five million copies worldwide and produced some of the defining rock singles of the 00's. Follow-up albums Sam's Town and Day & Age cemented their status as one of the biggest rock acts of the 21st century, with Human , Read My Mind and Spaceman all becoming global radio staples. The band have now released seven studio albums and performed to sold-out arenas and festival headline slots on every continent. Mr. Brightside now holds the record as the longest-charting single in UK chart history, having spent over 500 weeks in the Top 100.
Tim Schou
