Hoobastank have announced the cancellation of their planned 2026 Brazil tour, citing rising logistical costs that have made the trek financially unfeasible.
The band shared the news on social media, explaining that circumstances beyond their control forced them to cancel the shows despite their hopes of returning to Brazil after several years.
“Due to circumstances beyond our control, we will be canceling our Brazil 2026 Tour,” the band stated. “We were very excited to return to Brazil after many years, but unfortunately, rising logistical costs have made it impossible for us to make this tour work at this time.”
Hoobastank also acknowledged the disappointment the cancellation will cause fans, particularly those who had already made travel arrangements.
“Brazil, we know this is not the news you wanted to hear and it’s definitely not the news we wanted to share,” the group wrote in a separate message. “We are incredibly bummed and immensely sorry that this tour needs to be cancelled.”
The band added that they understood the impact of their decision on fans and did not take it lightly.
“We love our fans down in Brazil and appreciate all of your continued support over the years. When the circumstances allow we will make this up to you.”
Hoobastank expressed hope that they will be able to arrange another Brazilian tour in the near future, although no replacement dates have been announced.
