Influential riot grrl outfit Bikini Kill have rescheduled their tour once again, as it is now expected to take place next summer, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The tour was originally scheduled for this spring and fall, before being originally postponed to an even later date this fall. As COVID-19 continues to spread however, more shows are being rescheduled for 2021.

This upcoming tour will kick off at Le Botanique in Brussels, Belgium on May 27, with the European leg ending on June 10 in Berlin, Germany. The North American leg will then kick off a month later in Oakland, California, before wrapping up in Birmingham, Alabama on November 20.

A statement from the outfit states that ticket holders will need to contact their venues regarding refunds and as of press time have not stated if previous tickets will be honored at the rescheduled events. Tickets for the upcoming shows will be on sale this week.

The band played a benefit show back in March and have another one scheduled for this November, however it is unknown whether that latter event will continue. The group was joined by legendary rock performer Joan Jett last year for a performance of their 1993 classic “Rebel Girl.”

Bikini Kill was one of the more popular acts to come out of the Northwest riot grrl movement in the 1990s, which was defined by feminist political lyrics and a punk aesthetic. The group released a slew of albums during that decade, which concluded with their final album, Reject All American in 1996.
