Washington based feminist punk rock band Bikini Kill has just announced their rescheduled fall 2020 tour dates. The rescheduled tour is taking place due to the postponement of the original spring tour dates, which were postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak. Bikini Kill is just one of many artists and bands who have had to cancel or postpone their touring dates.
The rescheduled tour will include stops taking the band back to their hometown of Olympia, WA, where the band will play two benefit concerts (October 26-27) for Interfaith Works Nightly Shelter, a local non-profit organization that acts as the only shelter/homeless services program that explicitly prioritizes women and LGBT single adults in the Olympia community.
Bikini Kill first reunited last year to play live shows together, which was the first time the band joined forced together since 1997. Since then, the band has seen high demand for their live performances, and were scheduled to appear at Flow Festival, Sweden’s Way Out West, Norway’s Oya Festival, and Burger Boogaloo this year. However, because of social distancing guidelines in place due to the coronavirus, the status of the festivals is up in the air; Burger Boogaloo has already been postponed to the fall of this year due to the virus.
Bikini Kill has already announced fall tour dates taking place in September of this year. The rescheduled tour dates will take place immediately after, ranging from October to December. Check out the fall tour dates, as well as the rescheduled tour dates and tour flyer, below:
