PENDULUM ANNOUNCE HEADLINE SHOW AT TK MAXX PRESENTS SCARBOROUGH OAT 2025

Pendulum – one of the most iconic electronic rock acts of all time – are back and they are heading to the Yorkshire coast next summer.

The chart-topping and acclaimed Australian band headline TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre on Friday June 20. Tickets 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 an incredible headline show at Scarborough OAT – the UK’s largest open-air concert venue.

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.”

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.

A record-breaking 114,000 tickets were sold for 2024’s 18 Scarborough OAT headline shows from the likes of Jess Glynne, Simple Minds, Anne-Marie, Fatboy Slim, Paul Weller, Deacon Blue, Korn, Becky Hill, Tom Jones, Madness, James and comedian Bill Bailey.
