As the recent outbreak of the coronavirus disease continues to spread, it is putting more people’s lives at risk. Due to how contagious the disease is, many people are being advised to stay home unless they absolutely have to go out, with cities like San Francisco being mandated to “shelter in place.”
Due to the many concerns, it has been advised to avoid large gatherings and to practice social distancing. And in light of this, many tours have been postponed to help keep artists and fans safe during this tumultuous time.
While the cancellations and postponements of these shows is disappointing, it is important for music fans to stick together and be safe during this difficult time so we can get back to enjoying live music as soon as possible. In the mean time, check out this list of tours that are currently affected by the coronavirus pangemic.
