My Chemical Romance Announces Massive 2025 Tour Featuring The Black Parade in Full

The emo legends are back, and they’re bringing one of the most beloved albums of the 2000s with them. My Chemical Romance has just announced a highly anticipated 2025 tour, where they’ll play their iconic, multi-platinum 2006 album, The Black Parade, in its entirety across 10 stadiums. This is big news for fans, especially those who couldn’t make it to the When We Were Young Festival in Las Vegas earlier this year, where the band played the album in full for two epic performances.

Since reuniting in 2019, My Chemical Romance (MCR) has stirred up a mix of excitement and nostalgia, rekindling the flames for both old fans and a new generation discovering the band. Though their 2023 tour saw packed shows around the world, the chance to experience The Black Parade in full has been the subject of fan dreams for years. With this new tour, MCR is making sure the album, with hits like “Welcome to the Black Parade,” “I Don’t Love You,” and “Famous Last Words,” will be a live experience for a much broader audience.

The Lineup: A Star-Studded Cast of Openers

This tour isn’t just about revisiting The Black Parade. In classic MCR fashion, they’re bringing along an exciting and diverse roster of openers that span genres, with something for everyone to enjoy. From punk legends Violent Femmes to genre-blending duo 100 Gecs, indie-rock band Wallows, alternative rockers Garbage, and even icons like Alice Cooper and Pixies, this tour promises an unforgettable experience. Rounding out the lineup are Death Cab for Cutie, Thursday, Deco, IDLES, and Evanescence, making each show feel more like a mini-festival than just a concert.

New Music Rumors and The Foundations of Decay

Since the band dropped The Foundations of Decay in 2022—their first release in eight years—speculation about a new album has been high. The standalone track hinted at more music to come, igniting hope in fans that another full-length record might be on the way. While nothing has been confirmed about a new album yet, this 2025 tour announcement is fueling speculation that MCR may debut new material alongside their Black Parade performances.

Tickets and Tour Dates

Tickets for the tour will go on sale on November 15 at 10 a.m. local time, with dates and locations available on the My Chemical Romance website. Fans are encouraged to act fast, as the demand is expected to be enormous, given the album’s influence and the band's huge global following.

For fans who’ve been singing The Black Parade since its release, this tour is a dream come true and an opportunity to relive the era that defined a generation. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a new recruit, My Chemical Romance’s 2025 tour promises to be one of the can’t-miss events of the year.
