My Chemical Romance have announced a pair of shows at London's Wembley Stadium. The emo rock legends will play the huge gigs on July 10 and 11, 2026, marking their first UK dates since 2022. The shows are part of the Long Live The Black Parade stadium jaunt celebrating 20 years of their acclaimed 2006 LP The Black Parade. Tickets go on sale on Friday (15.08.25) at 10am via Ticketmaster. Gerard Way and co set tongues wagging that the UK would be next to join the celebrations in the form of a cryptic clip. A fake game show called Quizzo was introduced in the video, with the host declaring: 'Our two fine contestants will help us learn who will be the next lucky country to win the grand prize of one nuclear winter.' Fans' ears twitched when the winner was announced: 'Congratulations, United Kingdom!' The Instagram post was captioned: 'Let's show them what they've won.' As well as playing the album in full, the Helena rockers having been performing the unreleased song War Beneath The Rain.

My Chemical Romance fans think they've teased a UK tour
My Chemical Romance have hinted at a UK tour. The Teenagers rockers are currently on the North American leg of their Long Live The Black Parade stadium tour and have dates booked in South America and Asia next year. And on Friday (08.08.25), the group suggested they could also be planning a return to the UK after sharing a new video featuring an old-school TV game show called Quizzo. In the clip, the host said: 'Our two fine contestants will help us learn who will be the next lucky country to win the grand prize of one nuclear winter." After a player pushes a big button, the host revealed: 'Congratulations, United Kingdom!' The post caused fans in the comment to query whether it meant some new tour dates are to be announced soon. This isn't the first time the group have sparked speculation with a cryptic post because last month, fans were convinced new music was on their way. A picture depicting a stage light was captioned on the band's Instagram: "A dagger, a dagger, Please fetch me a dagger." The art also features the clue "Time: 7:11:25:00". Sadly for fans, new material didn't materialise and it seemed to be a reference to the start of their Long Live The Black Parade stadium tour in the US. In 2022, MCR released their first new music in a almost decade, the single The Foundations of Decay. In February, Frank Iero kept tight-lipped on rumours about a new My Chemical Romance album. The guitarist and backup vocalist insisted that there was no news to tell with regards to new material. Asked if there is anything to 'report' about a follow-up to 2010's Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys, he told NME: 'No, sorry. 'When that stuff – if that stuff were to happen, we will tell you. We will tell you in the way we want to tell you.' The 43-year-old musician also stayed schtum about the Long Live The Black Parade Tour heading across the pond to the UK. He said: 'It's been long-documented that we are huge fans of the UK – this is a home away from home for us. 'We've done things where the first place we played for a record release was the UK. It's always felt like a place that we love and that we hold very dear. But, to tell the future? It would be remiss to do that.'
