After a weekend of speculation sparked by mysterious billboards in Phoenix and other major cities, the wait is over: My Chemical Romance has officially announced new live dates across North America to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their landmark third album. “The Black Parade 2026” tour will bring the band to stadiums across North America, the UK, and Europe next year.

The pairing highlights a long-running connection between the two bands, who first toured together in Australia in 2005 and have since appeared on the same lineups at numerous festivals, including multiple years at When We Were Young Festival. Their parallel trajectory underscores a shared legacy in shaping the alternative and emo scenes, and brings added resonance to what promises to be a standout night for Arizona fans.

The announcement confirms what fans suspected when they spotted the cryptic Keposhka glyphs and teaser images on billboards in Phoenix, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York, and Nashville: My Chemical Romance is marching back, bigger than ever.

Mysterious My Chemical Romance Billboards Appear in Phoenix – Fans Speculate More U.S. Dates Ahead

Phoenix has become one of several U.S. cities to receive cryptic signs from My Chemical Romance. Fans began spotting billboards today near Chase Field and outside Tempe Marketplace, featuring the band’s distinctive Keposhka glyphs.

Meanwhile, in other cities (including Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York City, and Nashville ) fans have captured this signage, as well as teaser billboards with images of the band in their Black Parade uniforms, sparking a wave of speculation across Reddit and fan communities.

For Arizona fans, the excitement is especially intense. My Chemical Romance last performed in Tempe in 2008 at the Tempe Music Festival. A planned return in 2011 was canceled after the band joined The Sound Strike, a coalition of artists boycotting Arizona in protest of the controversial SB 1070 immigration law. That cancellation has made the wait for MCR’s return feel all the more torturous — or expensive, for those who’ve had to travel out of state to see them live.

While no official announcement has been made, the coordinated rollout has many convinced that My Chemical Romance is preparing to unveil more U.S. dates for 2025. The buzz follows hints dropped during the band’s last run of shows that “there was more to come.”

With sightings spanning multiple cities, anticipation is mounting that fans nationwide may soon get their chance to march again.
