We calculate the production rates of the second KK photons and the second KK Z bosons at the LHC in a framework of universal extra dimension models. In the hadron collider experiment, it can be difficult to distinguish the signal of KK particles in universal extra dimension models from that of unknown heavy particles in TeV scale new models. For the discrimination, the second KK gauge bosons play an important role. Thus we calculate the production rates of the second KK gauge bosons at the LHC including all significant processes, and discuss the feasibility to confirm universal extra dimension models at the LHC.
