Kraftwerk are bringing their pioneering electronic music back to North America in 2025.

The influential group will head out on an expansive tour, “Multimedia,” to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their first US tour back in 1975. They’re also commemorating the release of their breakthrough album Autobahnwhich was composed by founders Ralf Hütter and Florian Schneider, the latter of whom passed away in 2020.

Released in 1974, Autobahn it was more of a paradigm shift than an album. Its 22-minute title track, an electronic ode to the German highway system, introduced the world to Kraftwerk’s trailblazing blend of synthesizers, minimalism and conceptual soundscapes. The album laid the groundwork for modern electronic music, influencing everything from techno to house to synthpop.

Their first US tour in 1975 was a bold leap, bringing Europe’s avant-garde to American audiences and paving the way for generations of electronic artists. Now, with “Multimedia” the band will revisit that legacy through new audiovisual production transporting fans back to the Autobahn era while accelerating toward the future.

Kraftwerk’s “Multimedia” shows will take place in 25 cities across America and Canada starting March 6th, 2025 in Philadelphia. Other markets planned for the tour include Miami, Denver, Chicago, Toronto, Nashville, Austin and Brooklyn, among other major cities.

Kraftwerk will also head to Coachella’s desert metropolis to make their third festival appearance on April 13th and 20th. They are joined on the lineup by Zedd, Keinemusik, Above & Beyond and The Prodigy, among many other high-profile electronic artists.
