Fans have been desperate to see the band bring their new show over to the UK, with a massive teaser showing the tour’s logo emblazoned on the side of the stadium.

The band will perform at Wembley Stadium on 10th and 11th July 2026, with tickets going on sale this Friday.

The rock group, which first formed in 2001, became a genre-defining group in the emo era with their album Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge in 2004.

Their iconic status was then cemented with the multi-platinum selling album, The Black Parade, in 2006 – a concept album that followed a man’s journey to the afterlife.

The band initially split in 2013, but reformed in 2019 for a string of special shows.

They officially returned to the road for a new tour earlier this year.

‘Long Live: The Black Parade’ celebrates the album’s 20th anniversary, and features a grand spectacle where lead singer Gerard is depicted as a fascist-style leader.

The band will perform the titular album in its entirety – before following it up with a second set of hits from their other four albums.

MCR have released four albums to date – 2001 debut I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love; Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge; The Black Parade and finally, Danger Days: The True Lives of The Fabulous Killjoys in 2010.

But on top of that they have released collections of recordings, Conventional Weapons, as well as bonus tracks and specials on their Greatest Hits album.

Since that point, each have gone on to work on other projects, with Gerard notably helping create Netflix series The Umbrella Academy, based on a comic book he created by Gabriel Bá.

Rhythm guitarist Frank Iero has been on tour as frontman of a string of other bands, while lead guitarist Ray Toro has released his own solo material and joined other groups for album recordings – including Reggie and The Full Effect and Voltaire.

Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday 15th August,  and will be available here .
