Legendary punk band Bad Religion cancels tour, including Vancouver concert

A sold-out concert in Vancouver has now been cancelled.

Legendary punk rockers Bad Religion have announced their fall tour around North America is cancelled, including an upcoming show this fall at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver.

Earlier this summer, the band announced the date had sold out.

"Due to an unforeseen family circumstance, we are cancelling our upcoming fall tour," reads a post from the band on social media issued Aug. 27.

Bad Religion, known for songs like "21st Century Digital Boy," "Infected," and "Sorrow," was one of the biggest bands to come out of L.A.'s punk scene in the 1980s and influenced bands like Green Day and the Offspring, along with many other punk and pop punk bands of the last 30 years. Their last studio album was released in 2019.

Bad Religion has also continued touring regularly; they completed a circuit of Europe earlier this year and were due to start the North American leg in September, with a stop in Vancouver on Oct. 14.

"We apologize for any disappointment and disruption this may cause," reads the post. "We appreciate your understanding."

Ticket refunds will be available at the point of purchase.
