Deftones Postpone North American Tour With Gojira Until Spring 2022, Poppy Drops Off Bill

Written by Jon Stickler
Deftones have postponed their summer North American tour for a second time due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The band were due to hit the road with French metallers Gojira and Poppy, but having had to reschedule the dates until spring 2022, Poppy is now no longer able to feature on the bill. Deftones confirmed the news with a statement posted to social media:
"As everyone knows, difficult decisions are a part of life, and we faced one recently. After much contemplation, we’ve made the decision to postpone our summer tour with Gojira one more time. As passionate as you are about seeing us, we are even more so to be back onstage together.
"With the imminence of the tour, and the pandemic lasting much longer than we anticipated, we came to the realisation that uncertainty still remains in different markets throughout the country. We do not want to be in a situation where shows have to be adjusted or cancelled on short notice for any guideline adjustments or reconsiderations while we are on the road."
The trek will now kick off on April 14 at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Portland, with new stops announced in Las Vegas, Cincinnati, and Nashville. It’ll culminate at The Armory in Minneapolis on May 28. Original tickets will be honoured for the corresponding new dates, with the new shows on general sale at 10am local time on July 16.
Deftones will hit the road in support of their latest LP, ’Ohms’, released in September 2020. Gojira are touring behind their seventh studio album, ’Fortitude’, released in April, with a headline North American tour beginning this fall. They also embark on a UK and European tour early in 2022.
