Kraftwerk, led by legendary electro pioneer Ralf Hutter, will return to North America in 2025 to commemorate their breakthrough album Autobahn and their first U.S. Tour, which took place in 1975. The electronic music pioneers announced their “50 Years of Autobahn” multimedia concerts spanning 25 cities across America and Canada.
Bringing together music, visuals and performance art, Kraftwerk concerts are described as a “Gesamtkunstwerk – a total work of art.” The tour begins on March 6, 2025, in Philadelphia and includes stops in Pittsburgh, Toronto, Montreal, Memphis, Nashville, New York (with dates in Brooklyn and Manhattan), Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago and more. Additionally, the band will make their third Coachella festival appearance on April 13 and 20 in Indio (California).

Earlier this year, Kraftwerk completed a nine-night concert series celebrating 50 years of Autobahn – which was composed, produced, and recorded by Hütter and Florian Schneider in 1974 – at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. The performances received widespread critical acclaim.
