My Chemical Romance have canceled their June tour dates scheduled in Ukraine and Russia. “We hope to be able to play for the fans there soon,” the band wrote on Twitter. Three dates are affected—one each in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Kyiv—with the rest of their tour of Europe, Ireland, and the U.K. going on as scheduled.
The reunited My Chemical Romance are among many acts who have canceled tour dates in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, among them Björk, Nick Cave, HEALTH, and Green Day. Live Nation has TKTKTKT, and Spotify has closed its Moscow office indefinitely. After their Europe run, My Chemical Romance will tour the United States throughout September and October.
