Journey’s 50th Anniversary Freedom Tour was scheduled to start at the Cardiff Utilita Arena on October 30.
They were expected to play on November 2 in Glasgow with the band’s last concert in London on November 17.
Journey last played in Scotland 11 years ago in Glasgow at the SECC.
Cheap Trick, a US rock band, would have been supporting the band when it played in Scotland.
The sudden cancellation comes after reports of a legal issue between bandmembers Jonathan Cain and Neal Schon.
However, the band will continue its North American stadium shows with Def Lepard, which are set to finish in November.
The band released a statement saying: “Due to circumstances beyond the band’s control, Journey’s UK and Ireland tour is unfortunately cancelled.
“Refunds will be made from your point of purchase.”
Fans have taken to X to share their shock.
One wrote: “I’m going to see none now as you just cancelled f*****g Glasgow.”
Another added: “Can’t believe you’ve cancelled the UK tour.”
One user, said: “Just cancelled the UK & Ireland tour, so we’ll be waiting longer if they ever tour here again.”
Another posted: “I’ve been a fan practically my whole 31 years of life. I’ve been waiting 10+ years for them to tour the UK again.
“I even got close to stage tickets for their final UK tour date on their 50th anniversary, and then it gets cancelled with ZERO explanation!? I’m bl**dy gutted.”
One said: “Why has the UK tour with Cheap Trick been cancelled? Just had a very vague email about cancelling with no explanation?”
