Whitesnake postpone Japanese trek due to Coronavirus threat

Hard rock legends Whitesnake have announced the postponement of their Japanese tour, which was set to kick off next week at Fukuoka Civic Hall.

The band writes:

We regret to announce that WHITESNAKE’S Japan Tour which had been scheduled for March has been unavoidably postponed due to the ongoing threat of the Coronavirus.

Currently, we are working on rescheduling the dates. Your purchased tickets for the original dates will be valid for the rescheduled dates. Please ensure you keep your tickets safe. For those customers who wish to receive a refund, we will announce details of the refund process once we announce the rescheduled dates.

We deeply apologize to all parties concerned especially those customers who bought tickets and have been looking forward to the WHITESNAKE shows.

Whitesnake are scheduled to perform European shows this spring, with a North American trek to follow in the summer. All dates are here.

Whitesnake join Slipknot, Trivium, Lacuna Coil and Sons of Apollo in postponing/cancelling touring plans due to ongoing COVID-19 concerns.
