My Chemical Romance has announced its popular “Long Live: The Black Parade” tour will continue into 2026 including a Motor City date.

The alternative rock band from New Jersey will be joined by Detroit’s own Iggy Pop for the Comerica Park show, set for Friday, Aug. 21.

Tickets go on sale at noon on Friday, Sept. 26.

According to a press release, the opening acts for the North American leg of the tour were all “hand-selected” by the band.

Other dates include a mix of rising and established acts, including Franz Ferdinand, Pierce the Veil, Modest Mouse, Sleater-Kinney, the Breeders, Babymetal, Jimmy Eat World, and the Mars Volta.

My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way has cited Pop, known as “the Godfather of Punk,” as a major influence of the band — calling him “my biggest on-stage inspiration besides Freddie Mercury.”
