All tickets will be refunded
The Scorpions have been forced to cancel all upcoming Germany dates in September 2024 due to an injury by guitarist Matthias Jabs. Jabs’ injury requires surgery and subsequent rehabilitation, the band says.
“We are deeply sorry, especially of course Matthias Jabs, that due to the accident of our friend and Scorpions lead guitarist, the five concerts of our Germany tour cannot take place as planned in September and in close cooperation with the tour organizer, we will announce the news as soon as possible,” the group shares on social media. “All our fans, all the rock believers in Germany, who have been looking forward to the shows with us, we ask for understanding.”
The concerts in Nürnberg, Hamburg, Leipzig, Cologne, and Frankfurt are affected. Ticket holders will soon receive more information directly from their point of sale.
The cancellation hit the band hard, as they were on the finish line of their Love At First Sting world tour. The group deeply regrets the decision and apologizes to the more than 40,000 fans who have already purchased tickets, and to the organizers.
The German rockers are working on a biopic entitled Wind of Change. The film will tell the story of three unlikely friends — Rudolf Schenker, Klaus Meine & Matthias Jabs — whose passion for rock fueled their rise to fame in the 1980s. A 2025 release date is expected.
