My Chemical Romance add 2026 Long Live The Black Parade dates across US, UK and Europe

Every US show will feature a different opening act, with Iggy Pop, Pierce The Veil, Jimmy Eat World and The Mars Volta among the names announced

Published on · Reported from Punknews.org

My Chemical Romance have announced a new run of Long Live The Black Parade dates for 2026, expanding the tour into the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe.

The US leg comes with an unusual setup: a different band will open each night. The announced support acts include Iggy Pop, Franz Ferdinand, Pierce The Veil, Sleater-Kinney, The Breeders, Babymetal, Jimmy Eat World and The Mars Volta, a lineup that spans punk, indie rock, emo and experimental rock.

Tickets for the newly announced shows go on sale on September 26. The band shared an announcement video alongside the full list of dates.

These performances join previously confirmed shows in South America, South East Asia and the UK. The tour is built around The Black Parade, the record that remains the band's best-known work and one of the defining albums for emo and pop punk audiences over the past two decades.

Since returning to the stage, My Chemical Romance have centered their live activity on that material, playing large-scale productions in major venues. The 2026 expansion keeps the project moving forward, with the rotating cast of openers giving each night its own distinct bill.
