Biffy Clyro Postpone All Upcoming Tour Dates
Biffy Clyro's tour dates in the UK, Ireland, Europe and Australia have been postponed due to coronavirus.
With upcoming album A Celebration Of Endings on the horizon, unfortunately it looks like Biffy Clyro won't be able to tour their new music for some time yet.
The Scottish titans were set to hit the UK, Ireland, Europe and Australia to, er, celebrate A Celebration Of Endings, but have now announced that all dates have been postponed due to coronavirus.
“We were hoping that we were going to be able to announce replacement shows, which is why we have waited so long to postpone them, but unfortunately with the current situation that has not been possible,” the band say in a statement.

“We’ll have news for you and be out to see you as soon as we can. We love and miss you all, thanks for bearing with us – we’ll be back as soon as possible.”
As gutting as this is, Biffy do have something of a replacement coming up: the band will be performing at “an iconic Glasgow venue” for a very special one-off livestream on August 15.
“We are really excited to launch A Celebration Of Endings with such a unique and ambitious live performance from one of our favourite venues,” enthuses frontman Simon Neil. “We would love to be playing live shows to our fans across the world, but as this is not possible we are going to bring the biggest Biffy album launch imaginable direct to your living room.”
The band are not only set to run through their brand-new LP in full, but their show will also feature different set-ups in multiple areas in the venue “to create a unique and truly special experience that reflects the musical journey of A Celebration Of Endings”.
