(CelebrityAccess) — Metalcore band Falling in Reverse has announced the postponement of their UK tour, originally set to kick off on December 4, due to visa complications involving lead vocalist Ronnie Radke.
In a statement, the band revealed that the UK Home Office denied Radke’s visa application because of a 2006 incident that led to his incarceration. Radke had pleaded guilty to battery with substantial bodily harm following a brawl that resulted in the death of 18-year-old Michael Allen Cook. He served over two years in prison after violating his probation, making him ineligible for a UK visa under current regulations.
“We regret to announce that the Home Office has denied Ronnie’s visa application for the remaining 2024 UK shows,” the band shared. “The UK is currently refusing entry to visa applicants who served more than 12 months prison time.”
The tour, spanning December 4 to December 16, will now be rescheduled for 2025. Fans can still catch Falling in Reverse in Australia and New Zealand early next year, followed by several European festival appearances next summer.
