CANADIAN heroes Triumph have announced on the cancellation of the remaining dates on its 2026 Rock & Roll Machine Reloaded tour.
“It is with deep disappointment that we announce the cancellation of the remaining 2026 Reloaded Tour dates due to sudden and unexpected medical circumstances affecting the band,” the group stated, without giving further details.
The second leg of the tour, scheduled to begin in just under three weeks, was set to run from November 17 through December across the US Midwest, Northeast, Southwest and West Coast, plus two Ontario shows.
“These circumstances prevent us from being able to rehearse and move forward with the current shows as planned,” Triumph said in its official statement.
“We recognise that this announcement comes on short notice, and sincerely apologise for the disappointment and inconvenience this will cause.
Triumph insisted the outlook was positive and promised, “we will be back on stage with you as soon as possible.”
The cancelled dates formed part of the band’s 50th-anniversary celebrations and marked its first full tour in 33 years following a successful spring leg that sold more than 135,000 tickets.
Fellow Canadian rockers April Wine had been booked as special guests for the American dates and the December shows in Oshawa and London, Ontario.
All tickets purchased for the affected dates will be refunded automatically through the original point of purchase, with no action required from ticketholders.
Triumph thanked fans for their “unwavering support,” stating that it “means more than we can put into lyrics, especially during a difficult time like this.”
