The shows have been rescheduled for December.
Due to hit Australian shores later this month, The National have postponed their upcoming tour with Phoebe Bridgers in light of the global pandemic.
“The COVID-19 outbreak has led to a challenging few weeks for everyone. We have been monitoring the situation daily with our management & promoter partners,” said the band in a statement.
“We have a responsibility to our dedicated audiences, to our amazing crew, to our families at home, and to ourselves to take precautions in the interest of health and safety. For this reason we have made the difficult decision to postpone our Australia and New Zealand performances with Phoebe Bridgers until December. We look forward to seeing you all at the end of the year.”
Previously purchased tickets will be valid for the new tour dates, with refunds available for those unable to attend the rescheduled shows.
