CRUCIFIED BARBARA have cancelled their 7 November 2026 concert at The Dome in London after Hard Rock Hell 19 in Chichester was cancelled. The Swedish hard rock band was due to play the festival on 6 November, with the London show arranged as a connected date.

The band announced that both appearances would no longer take place because of circumstances beyond its control. It said the Hard Rock Hell booking was a prerequisite for the London concert, so the festival’s cancellation also led to the cancellation of the show at The Dome.

Unfortunately, we have to announce that our upcoming shows at Hard Rock Hell on November 6th and The Dome, London, on November 7th will no longer take place due to circumstances beyond our control. Hardrock Hell festival has been cancelled (see their website darkwatch.net or FB: HRH X), and since that festival was a prerequisite for us to play the show in London, the London show at The Dome unfortunately has to be cancelled as well. We are deeply disappointed and saddened by this situation, especially for everyone of you who had already bought their tickets and was looking forward to seeing us live. We surely have been looking forward to these shows and we really hope to see you all soon.

Tickets bought for the show at The Dome will be refunded, according to the band. Holders of tickets for HRH X have been directed to the festival organisers for information about refunds.

Mia Coldheart leads the return

Mia Coldheart, also known as Mia Karlsson, sings and plays lead guitar in Crucified Barbara. Klara Force plays rhythm guitar and sings backing vocals, while Ida Evileye plays bass and also provides backing vocals. Drummer Nicki Wicked completes the current line-up.

From reunion to UK dates

Crucified Barbara formed in Stockholm in 1998 and released four albums before announcing a split in 2016: “In Distortion We Trust” in 2005, “’Til Death Do Us Party” in 2009, “The Midnight Chase” in 2012 and “In the Red” in 2014. The four musicians announced their reunion in October 2024, then returned to the stage at Sweden Rock in 2025. Their planned November 2026 UK appearances were to follow recent festival performances including Full Metal Holiday in Mallorca and Vitå Rockfest in Luleå, before the Hard Rock Hell cancellation altered the schedule.
