My Chemical Romance has officially postponed the first show of their highly anticipated The Black Parade 2026 tour. Initially set to commence on January 22, 2026, at Vive Claro Distrito Cultural in Bogotá, Colombia, the concert will now take place on February 10, 2026. The band announced this change on their Instagram account over the weekend, citing “reasons beyond the control of ourselves, the promoter, or the venue.”
The announcement reassured fans that the opening act, The Hives, will remain the same and that the rest of the tour schedule, which includes subsequent shows in South America and Mexico City, will proceed as originally planned. “We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to our fans and look forward to seeing you in a few weeks,” the band stated.
All original tickets will be valid for the rescheduled date, and fans seeking refunds can find more information through Ticketmaster channels.
Tour Details and Fan Anticipation
The Black Parade 2026 tour is an extension of the band’s Long Live the Black Parade Tour, which celebrated the 20th anniversary of their influential album, The Black Parade. This upcoming tour features a total of 17 dates, starting in South America in January, before moving on to Asia in April and Europe in June and July. The North American leg will take place in August, September, and October, culminating with three nights at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles in October 2026.
The Long Live the Black Parade Tour was a significant success, beginning in July and spanning 12 dates. Renowned publication Rolling Stone praised the tour, noting the “headbanging, screamo singing, and high-voltage energy that reached every corner of the stadium.” They highlighted an emotional moment when lead vocalist Gerard Way performed the fan-favorite track “Helena,” bringing the sold-out crowd to a fervent sing-along.
As anticipation builds for the postponed show in Bogotá, fans remain excited for the band’s return, hoping to relive the energy and connection that defines My Chemical Romance’s performances. The band’s commitment to honoring original tickets offers reassurance to those who plan to attend the rescheduled event.
