Live from the Royal Albert Hall

Live from the Royal Albert Hall is a live video and audio release by American rock band the Killers, released on November 9, 2009, by Island Records.[1] The video is pulled from two nights the band performed at the Royal Albert Hall in July 2009, and also includes footage from festival dates the band headlined during the middle months of 2009.[1][2] A CD of live material accompanies the DVD as part of the package.[1] The artwork resembles the artwork for the band's third studio album, Day & Age, and was designed by artist Paul Normansell.[3]

Brandon Flowers said the decision to film the band's first live DVD at the Royal Albert Hall was because "London’s always been very good to us. They opened their arms to us before anybody else did. And Royal Albert Hall is a very iconic and special place. I grew up watching Morrissey videos that he had filmed there. So it was really exciting to be a part of it."[5]


Live from the Royal Albert Hall was nominated for Best DVD at the 2010 NME Awards.[6]

The DVD also includes behind-the-scenes footage, including interviews with crew and fans.

Although it was not announced by the band, they also released a Blu-ray version of the concert, although this does not include the live CD.
