Brockhampton have announced plans to go on hiatus.
"Brockhampton's upcoming shows at the O2 Academy Brixton in London and at Coachella will be our final performances as a group," the outfit wrote in a statement shared today. "All other tour dates are cancelled, effective immediately. Refunds for all tickets and VIP packages will be available at the point of purchase."
Brockhampton will play the O2 Academy Brixton in London, UK, on February 7 and 8, ahead of performing at Coachella on April 16 and 23. The group's most recent Canadian performance saw them play Toronto in November 2019, where they were supported by 100 gecs and slowthai.
"Following these four performances, we will be taking an indefinite hiatus as a group," they continued. "From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being on this journey with us. We would not be here without our fans. We hope we've been able to inspire you as much as you have us these past eight years. We are bonded and grateful to you for life."
