The National Cancel Two Tokyo Shows

8:29 PM EST on March 2, 2020


The National has canceled two shows in Tokyo in the wake of the coronavirus. According to posts made on their social media pages, the cancellations were “in the interest of public safety.” Rather than beginning their 2020 tour at the Zepp DiverCity in Japan on March 17, the tour will commence on March 21 in Australia.

With this news, The National becomes yet another band since the new year to cancel a show or tour in Japan. Without an expectation as to when the virus will be curbed or contained, the shows have yet to be rescheduled. Refunds for their canceled shows will be available throughout March at the point of purchase.
