Pendulum – one of the most iconic electronic rock acts of all time – are back and heading to Yorkshire for two massive headline shows next summer.
The chart-topping and acclaimed Australian band headline TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall on Saturday June 14. They then head to the Yorkshire coast six days later to headline TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre on Friday June 20.
Tickets for both shows go on sale at 9am on Friday November 22 from ticketmaster.co.uk
Pendulum marked the end of a self-imposed hiatus earlier this year with two new stunning EPs ‘Elemental’ and ‘Anima’ along with a sensational run of headline festival shows.
It has been an incredible journey for Pendulum since they formed in their native Perth in 2002.
Releasing their critically acclaimed debut album ‘Hold Your Colour’ in 2005, which included monster tracks ‘Slam’, ‘Fasten Your Seatbelt’, ‘Tarantula’ and ‘Blood Sugar’, Pendulum became instantly known for their unique blend of high-tempo productions and energetic shows.
Led by Rob Swire and bandmates Gareth McGrillen and Paul Harding, the album went platinum and the band set about taking the world by storm.
By the time 2008’s platinum-selling follow up ‘In Silico’ arrived, Pendulum were one of electronic music’s biggest live acts, with the album spawning the now legendary productions ‘Granite’ and ‘Propane Nightmares’.
Headlining stages at festivals worldwide, including Download, Creamfields, Coachella, Rock Am Ring, Reading/Leeds and T in the Park, Pendulum’s momentum continued to grow before releasing their third studio album in 2010, ‘Immersion’ which shot straight to Number 1 in the UK album charts.
After hitting the peak of their success, and to the shock of their fans, the guys decided in 2012 to take a break from the band and shifted their focus onto their Knife Party project.
But now Pendulum are well and truly back and ready for two incredible headline shows at The Piece Hall and Scarborough OAT.
Pendulum join Weezer, James, The Libertines, Simple Minds, Khruangbin, Texas, Olly Murs, Rag’n’Bone Man, UB40 ft Ali Campbell, Dean Lewis, The Saw Doctors and The Script among the first headliners announced for TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall 2025.
Nicky Chance Tompson MBE DL, CEO of The Piece Hall charitable trust, said: “Fans old and new will be incredibly excited to hear we are welcoming electronic pioneers Pendulum.
“Their huge and unique sound combined with our stunning backdrop means we are in for one very powerful show.”
Pendulum join Rag’n’Bone Man, Blossoms, Shed Seven, Texas, UB40 featuring Ali Campbell and The Script as the headliners already announced for TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre 2025.
Scarborough OAT venue programmer Julian Murray, of promoters Cuffe and Taylor, said: “Pendulum are one of the most important bands of the last 20 years and we are delighted to be adding them to our list of headliners for 2025.
“They returned earlier this year with two brilliant EPs that add to an incredible body of work which has won them an army of fans around the world and seen them headline some of the biggest venues and festivals. This is going to be another unmissable night at this very special venue.”
