Festivals

Alongside the main tour, My Chemical Romance will headline several major festivals including Welcome to Rockville in Florida, Sonic Temple in Ohio, Louder Than Life in Kentucky and Hammersonic in Jakarta.

A landmark anniversary

The Black Parade, released in 2006, became one of the defining rock albums of its era, cementing My Chemical Romance’s status as one of the most influential bands of the 2000s. The 2026 anniversary tour will see the album return to stadium stages around the world, underlining its lasting impact and the enduring loyalty of the band’s fanbase.
