My Chemical Romance are bringing the Black Parade to London next summer with two huge shows.
The emo icons will play a pair of nights at London’s Wembley Stadium (July 10 and July 11, 2026) for their first shows in the U.K. since 2022. Tickets for the show go on sale Aug. 15 at 10 a.m. (BST) from the band’s website.
The band’s Long Live The Black Parade tour first kicked off in Seattle, Washington on July 11 at the T-Mobile Park. It has since visited a number of outdoor stadiums including Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium and East Rutherford’s MetLife Stadium. The North American leg will continue through Philadelphia, Chicago, Toronto, Boston before concluding in Tampa, Florida on Sep. 13.
The tour features the band performing their 2006 album The Black Parade in full, alongside an additional greatest hits set. The album peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 upon release.
The London dates join the band’s 2026 slate, which includes a pair of dates at Mexico City’s Estadio GNP Seguros on Feb. 13 and 14. A number of huge names have supported the band on tour thus far, with Alice Cooper, Death Cab for Cutie, Idles, Pixies and Devo all appearing in the special guests slot.
At their show at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Aug. 9, the group rolled out a cover of Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer.” “We’re going to play you guys what may be the New Jersey state anthem,” frontman Gerard Way explained of the song choice.
The group formed in New Jersey in 2001 and received a surprise honor from their hometown of Belleville, as Michael Melham, the town’s mayor awarded them the key to the city on Saturday.
“Belleville’s musicians have entertained millions worldwide,” Melham told the crowd. “Their sound has shaped generations. Yet even in our storied history in Belleville – Revolutionary War soldiers, Purple Heart recipients, a Supreme Court justice, various professional athletes – never once in the history of Belleville have we handed out a key to the city and that changes right now.”
