My Chemical Romance Extends ‘Long Live the Black Parade’ Tour Through 2026
My Chemical Romance has recently completed their revival tour of The Black Parade in 2025, and they are now gearing up for a return in 2026 with a North American stadium tour. This upcoming tour, set to begin in New York in August and conclude with three shows in Los Angeles in December, has already generated significant excitement among fans of the iconic band. Tickets for the tour are set to go on sale this Friday at 12 pm local time.
The band’s 2025 tour started in Washington state and made its way across the U.S., culminating in Tampa, Florida, in September. During this tour, My Chemical Romance performed at various iconic venues and delighted audiences with their classic hits. Amidst the excitement, the band also unveiled a new song titled “War Beneath the Rain,” which had been written years before their split in 2013. This song was recorded at a studio in North Hollywood and was part of a project that never materialized, possibly linked to The Paper Kingdom project.
Gerard Way, the band’s frontman, shared some insights about the new song during a live performance at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. Expressing his fondness for the track, he dedicated it to the late studio engineer who was part of the recording. The band’s ability to captivate audiences with both their timeless classics and new material is a testament to their enduring appeal and artistic versatility.
Looking ahead to 2026, My Chemical Romance has announced an extensive list of tour dates, starting in New York and spanning across various cities in North America. The band’s commitment to bringing their music to fans across different regions underscores their dedication to connecting with audiences worldwide. The diversity of venues and locations on the tour reflects the band’s desire to reach a broad spectrum of fans and showcase their music in diverse settings.
With each performance, My Chemical Romance continues to reignite the passion of their loyal fan base and attract new listeners with their unique blend of emo music and rock influences. The anticipation surrounding the upcoming tour is palpable, with fans eagerly awaiting the chance to experience the magic of The Black Parade live in concert once again. As the band gears up for their future tour dates, the excitement and anticipation among fans only continue to grow, setting the stage for an unforgettable musical journey in 2026.
