UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL
KICK OFF SHOW
The Killers delivered a high-energy headline performance at the UEFA Champions League Final Kick Off Show at Budapest’s Puskás Aréna, setting the stage for Europe’s biggest club football match. Opening with When You Were Young and closing with the crowd-favorite Mr. Brightside, the Las Vegas rock icons combined stadium anthems, striking visuals and electric showmanship to create an unforgettable pre-match spectacle for fans in the stadium and millions watching worldwide.
“When The Killers took to the stage for the UEFA Champions League final Pepsi Kick Off Show on Saturday night, thousands inside the Puskas Arena and millions more around the globe watched on in awe as the rock giants condensed over twenty years of glory into a six-minute medley for the ages.”
