From there, the group will play a headline show on 29 August at Edinburgh’s Royal Highland Centre Showgrounds, and another on 1 September at Belfast’s Boucher Road Playing Fields.

The brief string of performances will then come to an end on 3 September with a headlining performance at Ireland’s Electric Picnic festival.

The band formed in Las Vegas in 2003, and have gone on to become one of the biggest acts in the world. They have garnered countless accolades, including multiple Grammy and American Music Award nominations, MTV Video Music Awards, NME Awards and more.
