Interpol adds intimate London show at British Airways Arc, Olympia

Interpol announced a more intimate replacement show in London, playing one date at the 3,800-capacity British Airways Arc at Olympia on Friday December 4, without Bloc Party. The original co-headline tour was due to conclude with two nights at the 7,000 capacity Grand Hall at London's Olympia on December 4 and 5. A run of shows including Jamie T and Royal Blood had to be moved or cancelled due to unforeseen planning issues at the venue.

Tickets for the new London date go on pre-sale at 9am on Thursday November 5 and on general sale on Friday November 6 at 9am. Interpol's eighth album is 'This Mirror Weighs A Ton'. NME gave 'This Mirror Weighs A Tonne' four-and-a-half stars.

Paul Banks said the album's rock-leaning vibe was a reaction to predecessor 'The Other Side Of Make-Believe' being written in isolation during the pandemic. Paul Banks is readying an album with a new band he formed with Liars' Aaron Hemphill in Berlin.
