5 Seconds of Summer have become the latest band to reschedule their upcoming tour dates, with the COVID-19 pandemic seeing the group push their No Shame tour back to early 2021.
First announced back in February, 5 Seconds of Summer revealed that they would return for a run of homecoming dates across November and December when their No Shame tour brought them back to Australia.
Set to kick off in June, the massive global tour was also set to see the group performing across North America and Europe, before the latter’s dates were postponed to the following year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. While the other shows remained on the cards, the group took to social media over the weekend to reveal that the remainder of their tour has now officially been postponed until 2021.

“Due to government action in certain markets and out of an abundance of caution, the remaining shows this year will no longer be possible,” the group explained in a statement “Therefore, our North American and Australian shows will now also move to 2021.
“As we’ve said before, playing live shows for our fans is what makes us want to be a band. While we’re all disappointed to reschedule these shows, the safety of our fans, touring crew and venue staff takes precedence and we know this is the right decision.”
Now set to kick off in March of 2021, this reshuffling of dates now sees 5 Seconds of Summer beginning their tour with the Australian leg, before it continues on to Europe in April, and wraps up with performances in the US and Canada across May and June.
While a handful of dates have now been cancelled due to this rescheduling, none of the Australian dates have been affected, and will go ahead as planned in March of 2021.
