KARD has announced the cancellation of their North America tour.

Previously, KARD had announced their 2025 North America tour “NEW ERA,” which was scheduled to begin in Nashville on February 27 and conclude in San Francisco on March 16.

On February 25 at midnight KST, the group’s agency officially revealed that KARD’s scheduled North American tour will no longer take place due to delays in visa issuance.

The company’s full English statement is as follows:

THIS SUCKS! I was looking forward to going....it's really hard to get me out of the house. And it's cancelled. Big sad.

This will probably happen a lot with what's happening to the US government.

I had a lot of friends looking forward to this tour, I feel really bad about the tour being canceled.

I'm not sure how visa's work, but going forward I wonder if groups now need to try to secure a visa and then plan a tour? (Or drop the tour really REALLY far in advance so there's extra cushion time to get the visa processed?)

I honestly am expecting us to have less kpop tours in the future because I feel this visa issue will become a common thing really soon...

There's a huge fight going on on the KARD Reddit. Some are saying it's the current US administration, some are saying it was the company behind the tour (like they couldn't sell enough tickets). Nothing makes sense to me anymore lol

I trust the members (or BM at least, idk the other members).

I highly doubt ticket sales was the issue.

I do know the company behind the tour is completely trash and this isn’t the first tour they canceled/fucked up. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this is the touring company’s fault and they messed up the visas somehow.

Yeah I definitely don't blame the members. They've toured the US before and it's always a good time I've heard.

I didn't know that about the company. I only heard about the tour that this one replaced. I just don't know what happened.
