It will be the band’s second tour without former frontman Keith Flint, who tragically took his own life in 2019, aged 49. The band - made up of founding members Liam Howlett and Maxim - toured last year, including three sell-out nights at the Brixton Academy in London.

The show now features a tribute to Keith, with the outline of his head - with his famous devil-horns hair style - drawn out in green lasers as an introduction to the track Firestarter. The band played a headline slot at the Parklife festival last weekend.

A huge crowd filled the Valley stage for the festival’s closing set, which included hits like Breathe, Firestarter, Everybody In The Place and Voodoo People.
