As a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Biffy Clyro have had to reschedule their European tour dates, with the new billing placing the tour in 2022. Although it seems large events may well be allowed to go ahead in many locations this year, uncertainty around travel restrictions for the rest of this year led the band to make the decision to postpone their tour.
The 2021 ‘Fingers Crossed’ tour had been due to kick off in October, when the band’s new album is also set to be released. According to the band speaking to NME, the new album is “about the aftermath of coming through something together, but also not being able to comprehend what someone else is going through. We’re all trying to make the best of that.”
The ‘Fingers Crossed’ tour will now take place in February and March 2022 – except for their date at Hamburg, which has been rescheduled for August 16th due to repair works being carried out at the stadium until then. The band announced the rescheduled dates in a tweet, saying that “With the ongoing uncertainty around travel restrictions, we have made the decision to postpone our upcoming European tour until February/March 2022. We can’t wait to get out and see you all as soon as it is safe for everyone to be together again”
Tickets are now on sale now at: https://www.biffyclyro.com/live/. Tickets for the Hannover gig will go on sale this Friday 25th June at 9am BST / 10am CET. The band also promises an update on a Stockholm date soon, and notes that any tickets already purchased will remain valid for the rescheduled dates.
The band are also set to headline next year’s Download festival, amongst other big names including Iron Maiden and KISS who will also take the main stage.
