US ROCK band The Killers graced the St Mary's stage last night as part of their highly-anticipated tour.

Originally, the band was set to perform in 2020 and then 2021, but the coronavirus pandemic put their Imploding the Mirage tour on hold.

Review: A night with The Killers was well worth the two-year wait

The Killers were supported by Manchester band Blossoms, who sang smash hits including Charlemagne to excited crowds.

Thousands piled into the stadium to watch both bands perform in a “super spreader” night, as described by Killers frontman Brandon Flowers, who said: “We’re spreading peace, we’re spreading love and we’re spreading rock and roll.”

Thousands flocked to the stadium on Monday, May 30, but if you were unable to attend the concert, scroll through our online gallery.
