My Chemical Romance to Bring The Black Parade to Life in 2025 with Blockbuster Summer Tour
After a spine-tingling performance of The Black Parade in its entirety at the recent When We Were Young Festival, My Chemical Romance (Gerard Way, Ray Toro, Frank Iero, and Mikey Way) is back to celebrate their landmark 2006 album on an exclusive 10-city North American tour. This beloved rock opera, once named one of Rolling Stone’s "500 Greatest Albums of All Time," will resonate through stadiums this summer, giving fans a chance to experience the album’s theatrical energy from start to finish. With each performance produced by Live Nation, The Black Parade tour promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime celebration of the album that defined an era.
Each city will feature an opening act handpicked by the band, bringing a unique musical flavor to every show and underscoring the range of influences that helped shape The Black Parade’s sound. With genre-blending openers from iconic punk and alternative acts like Violent Femmes, 100 Gecs, and Devo to legends like Garbage and Pixies, the tour is set to be a sonic experience with something for every rock fan. Adding to the excitement, bands like Death Cab for Cutie and Thursday will join forces in New Jersey, while a powerhouse lineup of Alice Cooper and Evanescence will amp up the drama in Philadelphia and Tampa.
Tickets go on sale Friday, November 15, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. local time, with anticipation reaching fever pitch for this exclusive series of shows. Given that this will be one of the only chances to hear The Black Parade in full, from "The End." to "Famous Last Words," and even “Blood,” fans can expect tickets to move fast.
