Kneecap cancel US shows over court case ‘witch hunt’
The Independent
|August 26, 2025
Kneecap have announced that they have been forced to cancel all 15 of their scheduled US shows, which were due to take place in October.
The decision was taken due to the tour’s close proximity with the Irish hip-hop trio’s next court hearing in London on 26 September. The group, who said they are the subjects of a “witch hunt” by the British government, promised to embark on an even bigger tour “once we win our court case, which we will”.
Kneecap’s sold-out Canadian shows in Vancouver and Toronto will go ahead as planned.
In a statement, they added that they would be sharing something “very special” for their US fans next week.
“It's top secret for now but all will be revealed next week - stay tuned,” they said. “And remember... “The revolution will be no rerun, brothers/ The revolution will be live.”
