My Chemical Romance to hold concert in Malaysia in 2026
Only one band can trigger a belting session across generations with a single note played on a piano. That’s how well-known My Chemical Romance and their songs like Welcome To The Black Parade are.
In April 2026, Malaysians can don their best punk ‘fits again and prep for a night screaming their hearts out to MCR’s iconic songs. The emo music icons have finally confirmed that they are heading to Malaysia for a concert.
They last performed in Malaysia in 2007
It’s been 18 years since MCR last performed in Malaysia. The four-piece band, comprising Gerard Way, Ray Toro, Mikey Way, and Frank Lero, had a show at Stadium Merdeka way back in December 2007 for The Black Parade Tour. Iconic anthems like Helena and Welcome To The Black Parade left us with major post-concert depression.
With a new expanded edition of their successful sophomore album, Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge, and a restored music video for The Ghost Of You, released in 2025 – a whopping 21 years after its original release date – it’s been major nostalgia flashbacks for fans in recent days.
And the excitement doesn’t stop here. The band just dropped a string of 2025 stadium and arena shows across South America and Southeast Asia in 2026 on Monday, 7th July, on Instagram. Lo and behold – Malaysia is on the list.
