Queen Declares US Tour Cancelled Amid Safety Concerns

On 30 January 2026 Sky News reported that Queen guitarist Sir Brian May has ruled out any U.S. tours, citing safety concerns. May said “America is a dangerous place at the moment,” reflecting rising border checks and political tensions that have deterred travelers. The band’s last show was in February 2014, and since then it has focused on European dates, reportedly planning no stateside gigs. May also announced he would skip next year’s Glastonbury Festival over disagreement with badger culling in farming. The decision follows criticism of American conditions and aligns with the band’s current touring pause. The remark echoes growing concerns among fans worldwide, as U.S. political climate shifts.
