My Chemical Romance announce 2020 North American reunion tour

My Chemical Romance have lifted the veil on a North American tour for this year – their first in nine years.

The reunion tour, which runs from September to October, will kick off at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan and end at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. In fitting fashion, MCR’s tour was announced via a creepy 13-minute short film, A Summoning… which stars lead guitarist Ray Toro and keys player James Muhoberac. The film features multiple easter eggs from the band’s storied career, in a nod to longtime fans.

MCR split in 2013, and made waves late last year when they announced a surprise reunion show on 20 December at the Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles, California. The sold-out show received much praise from fans, and the band have since announced a string of shows. Before MCR set off on the North American tour, they will be playing in Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Europe from March to July.
