For a large class of C*-algebras A, we calculate the K-theory of reduced crossed products A⊗ G\rtimesrG of Bernoulli shifts by groups satisfying the Baum--Connes conjecture. In particular, we give explicit formulas for finite-dimensional C*-algebras, UHF-algebras, rotation algebras, and several other examples. As an application, we obtain a formula for the K-theory of reduced C*-algebras of wreath products H\wr G for large classes of groups H and G. Our methods use a generalization of techniques developed by the second named author together with Joachim Cuntz and Xin Li, and a trivialization theorem for finite group actions on UHF algebras developed in a companion paper by the third and fourth named authors.
