Orange Goblin announce rescheduled UK tour dates

ORANGE GOBLIN have announced the rescheduled dates for their UK tour!

Originally scheduled to take place this December as part of the band’s 25th anniversary celebrations, unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tour has now been rescheduled to December 2021. SPIRIT ADRIFT and KING CREATURE retain their slots as supporting bands and all tickets purchased remain valid.

Speaking about rescheduling the tour, vocalist Ben Ward says, “it is with a very heavy heart that we have to concede defeat and announce that due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent venue restrictions, ORANGE GOBLIN are going to have to postpone our 25 Year Anniversary tour, scheduled for December 2020. We wanted to wait as long as possible to see whether we would be given the go ahead but with no clear indication that full capacity shows will be allowed by then we now have no choice but to reschedule for December 2021.

The safety and well being of our fans, crew, venue staff and bandmates is always the most important issue for us so we hope that you understand our situation. The new dates are already in place and any tickets already purchased will still be valid for the shows in 2021. We are also happy to say that both support bands, SPIRIT ADRIFT and KING CREATURE, are behind this decision and will be with us when we return in 2021. We have also added a couple of extra dates, one at The Booking Hall in Dover, which will be a warm-up show for the tour (No SPIRIT ADRIFT or KING CREATURE for that one!) and a show at the Tivoli in Buckley too. As always, we thank you for your continued support. Stay safe and we look forward to seeing everyone in 2021.”

Wed 08 Dec – The Booking Hall, Dover, UK  (ORANGE GOBLIN only)
