The Pussycat Dolls Cancel North American PCD Forever Tour Dates: ‘Difficult & Heartbreaking Decision’
The PCD will still perform at WeHo Pride in Los Angeles, and the European trek will go on as scheduled.

The Pussycat Dolls announced on Monday (May 4) that the newly reunited group — which returned as a trio — has canceled all but one of their North American PCD Forever Tour dates.
Adding to a plethora of tour cancellations across the industry, The Pussycat Dolls were set to take over arenas and amphitheaters throughout North America this summer, but all stateside shows, outside of the trio’s appearance at WeHo Festival in Los Angeles, have been canceled in what the group described as a “difficult and heartbreaking decision.”
“We want to share an important update with you,” the announcement began. “When we announced the PCD FOREVER Tour, we hoped to bring the show to fans across the world. After taking an honest look at the North American run, we’ve made the difficult and heartbreaking decision to cancel all but one of the North America dates.”

The PCD continued: “@officiallyoutloud at WeHo Pride in Los Angeles is still happening on June 6, 2026, and we could not think of a more meaningful place to celebrate with our fans. The LGBTQ+ community has shown us so much love and support throughout our career, and we’re honored to be part of a weekend rooted in joy, pride, music, and chosen family.”
However, the U.K. and European tour dates will still go on as scheduled, and fans who have purchased tickets for the North American leg will be refunded at their point of purchase.
“Our UK and European dates are still moving forward as planned, and the response has been incredible, with several shows already sold out,” the group added. “We are putting everything into making this show a true celebration of the music and the memories, for the fans who have been with us from the beginning and those discovering us for the first time. We’re working hard to create the kind of show we’ve always dreamed of bringing to you. We cannot wait to bring this reunion to Europe and make these nights unforgettable.”

The PCD Forever Tour was set to kick off at Acrisure Arena in Palm Desert, Calif., on June 5, marking the group’s first trek since disbanding in 2010. Mya and Lil’ Kim were slated to join The Pussycat Dolls for the 53-date global tour.
Founding members Nicole Scherzinger, Kimberly Wyatt and Ashley Roberts revived The Pussycat Dolls following a brief reunion as a quintet in 2019, as the trio returned to release the single “Club Song” in March.
Before the cancellation, the trio’s members spoke to Billboard about their excitement and the “unfinished business” within the comeback. “This is really exciting for us,” Scherzinger said in April. “To be able to reclaim The Pussycat Dolls within us, in this era of our lives. Celebrating the women that we’ve evolved into and have become — and are still becoming.”
The Pussycat Dolls took off in 2005 behind the group’s PCD debut, which was powered by top 5 Billboard Hot 100 anthems “Don’t Cha” (No. 2 peak) featuring Busta Rhymes and the Snoop Dogg-assisted “Buttons” (No. 3 peak).
