Heavy rockers Dogma were meant to kick off their debut Australian tour tonight in Adelaide, but have unfortunately been forced to cancel their tour. After it was first noted that the tour would be postponed, the band released an official statement on their social media pages confirming the tour would no longer go ahead “due to circumstances beyond our control.
You can read the full statement below, which also reveals that Dogma’s China tour has been postponed.
“Over the past days we have been in continuous communication with our partners to evaluate every possible option to preserve the upcoming shows. We chose silence until now because we were exhausting every path that could allow the Australian dates to move forward or be immediately rescheduled with confirmed replacement dates.
“After completing that process, we can confirm the following:
“Australia: Due to circumstances beyond our control, the Australian shows are officially cancelled. All tickets and Meet & Greets can be refunded at the original point of purchase.
We are already discussing the possibility of returning to Australia in the future.
“China: The China dates will be rescheduled with the same promoter. New dates will be announced once the updated timeline is confirmed.
“To everyone who has been waiting for news: thank you for your patience. Dogma does not move impulsively. We move with purpose, and we do not speak until every door has been opened, checked, and, when needed, closed.
“A new path is now being drawn. Those who walk with us will soon see where it leads. We embrace you, sinners…”

While there is no concrete answer for the cancellation of Dogma’s tour, bar the standard “due to unforeseen circumstances” line, rumours have been circulating for several weeks that members of the band have taken a stand against the mistreatment they have received from their management.
These allegations stem from a joint statement released by former Dogma guitarist Amber Maldonado (Lamia), ex-guitarist Patri Grief (Rusalka) and former vocalist Grace Jane Pasturini (Lilith II), whereby the three claimed they were manipulated and mistreated by the band’s management.
It’s unclear where the band goes from here, with the future of Dogma up in the air.
