MGMT to tour ‘Congratulations’ in the UK and Ireland next month

MGMT are set to return in September for their biggest headline tour of the UK so far, including three sold-out shows at Brixton Academy.

Over the summer the band played to huge crowds at Glastonbury and Radio 1’s Big Weekend. They’ve headlined their first US tour, taking in Lollapalooza on the way.

It’s the first time MGMT have toured the UK since the release of ‘Congratulations’, the critically-acclaimed follow up to their massive debut album ‘Oracular Spectacular’.
