My Chemical Romance to headline three massive U.S. fests in 2026

Fresh from putting out some exciting U.S. teasers for what is presumably another big tour next year, My Chemical Romance have also been announced for a trio of 2026 Danny Wimmer Presents festivals.

Kerrang! are currently on the ground at Louisville, Kentucky’s huge Louder Than Life this weekend, and around the site there are posters that confirm the New Jersey emo kings will not only headline there next year, but also Welcome To Rockville (which takes place in Daytona Beach, Florida from May 7 – 10) and Sonic Temple (the following weekend, May 14 – 17, in Columbus, Ohio).

My Chemical Romance already have lots of touring plans around the world in 2026, including two massive dates at London’s Wembley Stadium on July 10 – 11. Their 2025 touring calendar has literally just come to an end, as they brought The Black Parade to Shaky Knees in Atlanta, Georgia last night, September 20. The band performed the whole record in full, plus an encore of I’m Not Okay (I Promise), Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na), Boy Division and Helena.

Check out the teaser posters around the site at Louder Than Life 2025:
