Pussycat Dolls Cancel Nearly All North American Dates of ‘PCD Forever’ Reunion Tour

Read Time:2 Minute, 51 Second

Los Angeles, May 6, 2026 — The Pussycat Dolls have canceled the majority of their planned North American tour dates for the “PCD Forever” reunion, citing disappointing ticket sales as the primary reason for the decision.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the group — currently consisting of Nicole Scherzinger, Ashley Roberts, and Kimberly Wyatt — said they had taken an “honest look” at the North American leg of the tour and made the difficult decision to scale back significantly.

“After careful consideration and reviewing the current landscape, we have made the heartbreaking decision to cancel most of our North American tour dates,” the statement read. “We are incredibly grateful to the fans who have supported us and look forward to delivering unforgettable shows where the demand is strongest.”

Limited Lineup and Ambitious Plans

The reunion tour was announced earlier this year with considerable fanfare, marking the group’s first major live return in over a decade. Originally, organizers had scheduled approximately 30 to 33 shows across the United States and Canada, booking large arenas in major markets for June, July, and August 2026.

However, ticket sales failed to meet expectations, with reports of substantial blocks of unsold seats appearing on major ticketing platforms in the weeks following the on-sale date. Industry insiders pointed to several contributing factors, including high ticket prices, the reduced three-member lineup, and broader challenges in the live entertainment market.

What Remains

Only one performance in the United States will proceed as planned: the group’s appearance at WeHo Pride in Los Angeles on June 6, 2026.

Ticket holders for the canceled shows will receive automatic refunds through their point of purchase, including Ticketmaster and AXS. Fans who bought tickets on the secondary market are advised to contact the respective resale platform for refund information.

Stronger Demand in Europe

While North America has presented challenges, the European leg of the “PCD Forever” tour remains on track and is showing robust demand. Several dates in the United Kingdom and other European markets have already sold out, with more expected to follow.

The group is scheduled to begin its European run in September 2026.

A Long Road to Reunion

The Pussycat Dolls first teased their comeback several years ago, but the project faced multiple delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic and reported internal legal and business disputes. The current iteration features three core members, with Scherzinger continuing as the group’s lead vocalist and most prominent figure.

The tour was intended to celebrate the group’s legacy while introducing new music to a new generation of fans.

Broader Industry Context

The cancellation reflects a wider trend affecting the live music industry in 2026. Many artists, particularly those relying on nostalgia-driven reunions, have encountered softer-than-expected ticket demand amid rising production costs, economic uncertainty, and audience selectivity.

Large arena tours have become increasingly difficult to sustain without exceptional pre-sale numbers or strong ongoing cultural relevance. Several other acts have quietly scaled back or postponed North American dates this year for similar reasons.

What’s Next

For the Pussycat Dolls, the immediate focus will shift to delivering strong performances in Europe, where fan enthusiasm appears significantly higher. Whether the group will attempt a future return to North American arenas remains uncertain.

Fans disappointed by the cancellations are encouraged to attend the remaining WeHo Pride show or look for opportunities to see the group during the international dates.
