Erasure have postponed their shows in Europe and Ireland until May 2022.
The duo is set to return to the stage in October for the opening leg of the jaunt, in support of their 2020 UK Top 5 album.
While UK dates are set to go ahead as planned, shows in Ireland, Denmark and Germany have been pushed.
