Ashton Gate Stadium managing director Mark Kelly said: “Obviously it’s a great shame that the tour has had to be postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic but the most important thing is keeping people safe during this difficult time.
“The band has stressed that this is simply a postponement not a cancellation and we are pleased that we have the new date locked in and ready for next year.
“Naturally fans will be disappointed to have to wait a bit longer but hopefully people will understand and appreciate that we must all remain focused on fighting the spread of this virus.”
In a statement, The Killers said: “UK and Ireland friends… We must postpone our UK and Ireland dates due to COVID. The single most important thing is that you all take care of yourselves and be safe and healthy.
“These are going to be the same great shows, but we have to move them to next year. All tickets will be honoured, so we really hope you will join us.”
