Queen + Adam have postponed the European and UK leg of their Rhapsody World Tour for the second time as the coronavirus pandemic continues to keep lockdowns and social distancing measures in place across the continent.
The group was originally scheduled to head out across the UK and Europe in the summer of 2020. Due to the pandemic, the dates were quickly rescheduled for 2021.
In a statement today announcing the second postponement, Lambert, Roger Taylor and Brian May called the circumstances “heartbreaking”.

The Rhapsody Tour will now kick off May 30, 2022 in Manchester and continue through July 18 in Copenhagen. Two previously unscheduled shows in Glasgow have also been added to the tour.
The band confirmed that previously purchased tickets continue to be valid for the corresponding rescheduled shows.
2021 marks the fifty-year anniversary of the formation of Queen’s classic lineup, when John Deacon joined Brian May, Roger Taylor and Freddie Mercury in 1971.
