American alternative rock band My Chemical Romance will be back in Singapore after almost two decades for a show at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on April 28, 2026.

Tickets go on sale on July 11 at 10am via Sistic.

The emo/pop-punk group will then perform in Kuala Lumpur on April 30, 2026, at Bukit Jalil National Stadium.

For the KL venue, tickets will go on sale on Friday (July 11) at 11am via www.golive-asia.com.

The New Jersey quartet are best known for 2000s emo anthems such as Welcome To The Black Parade (2006), Helena (2004) and I’m Not Okay (I Promise) (2004).

According to organiser Midas Promotions, who is co-presenting the show with promoter Akselerasi Entertainment, the gig is part of the band’s 2026 South-East Asia tour.

Formed in 2001, the band released debut album I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love the following year and rose to become one of the most prominent rock bands of the 2000s.

At the 2006 MTV Asia Awards in Thailand, the band won Favourite Breakthrough Artist and Favourite Video for Helena.

Their third album, The Black Parade (2006), is regarded as a watershed release for emo music.

The band split up in 2013 and reunited in 2019. In July, they kicked off their global Long Live The Black Parade Tour, in which they will play The Black Parade album in its entirety and includes dates in North and South America.

The band are fronted by singer Gerard Way, who is also the author of the award-winning comic book and science fiction Netflix series The Umbrella Academy (2019 to 2024). – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
