Radiohead are the first act for Belgium's Rock Werchter which takes place from Thursday 29th June to Sunday 2nd July 2017 and is held in the small village of Werchter in Rotselaar, Belgium.

Rock Werchter organisers said of their forthcoming performance, "Radiohead will perform on Friday 30 June. Few artists combine success with experimentation the way Radiohead do. Their ninth album, A Moon Shaped Pool (2016), is yet another hard hitting and inventive artistic statement. It’s going to be great to see this band again. The last time they played Rock Werchter was in 2008."

That means, as well as Glastonbury Festival, Thom Yorke and company will be appearing at a string of European festivals next summer including Denmark's Northside, Holland's Best Kept Secret, Poland's Open'Er, and France's Main Square.

Tickets to Rock Werchter 2017 go on sale on Saturday 19 November at 10 AM.
