Underworld's only U.S. headline shows of 2026 land at Knockdown Center over Labor Day weekend, and Friday is the second and final night. Rick Smith and Karl Hyde play two full sets with no opener, ranging across three decades from dubnobasswithmyheadman anthems to their latest work. Both nights sold out on primary — land a resale ticket and this is the dance event of the weekend.
What to expect
Two full Underworld sets in one night, with no support act — a career-spanning marathon built for dancing, not a greatest-hits recital. Knockdown Center's former factory complex in Maspeth supplies the warehouse scale and serious sound the duo's catalog deserves. Expect a sold-out, all-in crowd for what is effectively the band's U.S. event of the year.
Good to know
- Primary tickets ($95 via DICE) are gone for both nights — try DICE's face-value waiting list before paying secondary-market markups.
- Night one is Thursday, Sep 3; Friday, Sep 4 is the final night of the stand.
- No opener — Underworld play two sets themselves, so don't plan on strolling in late.
- Knockdown Center is at 52-19 Flushing Ave in Maspeth; the Jefferson St L plus a walk, or a car, is the practical way in.

Common questions
Is the show sold out?
Yes — primary tickets for both nights are sold out. DICE's fan-to-fan waiting list returns tickets at face value ($95) when holders sell back; otherwise it's resale marketplaces.
Who is opening?
No one. Underworld perform two full sets each night with no support.
Is Friday the same show as Thursday?
Same two-set format, but Underworld are known for shifting setlists night to night — and these are their only 2026 U.S. headline dates either way.
