Rammstein announce new date for massive Principality Stadium gig in Cardiff

German metal band Rammstein have announced a new date for their huge Cardiff gig.

The band were due to perform at the Principality Stadium on June 14 but recently cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

They had already sold tens of thousands of tickets for the gig in the capital.

However, the band have confirmed that a new date in Cardiff has now been arranged. You'll be able to go and see them on June 16, 2021.

Rammstein confirmed the news that their Europe stadium tour had been rescheduled to 2021 on Tuesday afternoon.

A statement released by the band said: "Today we're delighted to announce the new, rescheduled dates for this year’s Rammstein - tour, which had to be cancelled due to Covid-19.

"All shows have now been rescheduled to 2021, and already-purchased tickets will remain valid for the new dates! We are very much looking forward to seeing many of you next year!"

The June gig would have been the band's first appearance in Wales for 15 years and their popularity in the country was made obvious when tens of thousands of tickets were snapped up last summer within hours of going on sale.

The band – who have a reputation for dramatic stadium performances containing fire and pyrotechnics – have released seven studio albums, the most recent of which hit the number three spot in the UK charts.

Rammstein are one of many acts who have been forced to postpone or cancel tours due to the outbreak this year.
