Kaiser Chiefs unveil further Employment 20th anniversary tour dates

Kaiser Chiefs are set to play huge outdoor shows to mark the 20th anniversary of their debut album ‘Employment’.

The indie rockers recently announced a homecoming gig at Leeds’ Temple Newsam Park in honour of the acclaimed LP reaching the milestone next year, and now they have added a string of outdoor shows at venues including, London’s Alexandra Palace Park, Brighton Beach and Edinburgh Castle.

The run of dates kicks off in Port Talbot on May 23 at In It Together festival in Margam, Wales, and includes appearances at Bristol Sounds, Kendal Calling in the Lake District, and Cornwall’s Boardmasters Festival.

‘Employment’ was a huge success for Kaiser Chiefs; swiftly cementing their status as new indie favourites upon its release in 2005.

The seven-times platinum record produced a slew of hits in ‘Oh My God’, ‘I Predict a Riot’, ‘Everyday I Love You Less and Less’, and ‘Modern Way’.

Ricky Wilson and co said: “20 years ago, a brand new song by a brand new band was released. I Predict A Riot was the start of something really special for some musicians from Leeds. And the album that followed, Employment, changed our lives and has soundtracked the lives of millions of others since 2005. In 2025 we are saluting 20 years of that album and everyone is invited. Come celebrate the 2000’s, loving everything less and less and stripey blazers taking over the world. See you all next year.”

Tickets go on general sale on November 8 at 9am via www.kaiserchiefs.com.
