Rage Against the Machine Postpone Tour Dates Due to Coronavirus – Loudwire

Rage Against the Machine are the latest to announce a series of postponed tour dates as cities continue to ban public gatherings of varying sizes in an attempt to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus now sweeping the globe.

Yesterday (March 12), it was reported that Live Nation, the producer of Rage Against the Machine’s comeback tour as well as many other high-profile treks, would be putting a pause on all of their March concerts. Their aim is to reassess the situation in April and to hopefully resume touring by May or June.

A joint statement on the decision to pause these concerts was released by multiple producers of live entertainment, including Creative Artists Agency (CAA), William Morris Endeavor (WME), Paradigm and United Talent Agency (UTA) in addition to Live Nation.

Commenting on the postponement, Rage Against the Machine released the following statement:

Due to the current outbreak and ban on public gatherings, we are postponing the first part of our tour (March 26th – May 20th) with Run the Jewels. The safety and health of those who come to our shows is of the utmost importance to us. All previously purchased tickets will be honored for newly scheduled shows. As it stands, the July and August tour is still on and we will be in touch soon about rescheduled dates.

See the list of affected dates further down the page.

Rage Against the Machine are expected to return to the stage on May 23 at the Boston Calling festival and have North American dates on the books through mid-August.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has officially declared the coronavirus a pandemic. For best practices on how to stay safe, limit the spread of the disease and more, head to the organization’s website.
