The Lumineers have canceled all of the May and June tour dates, which included a May 30 performance at Cellairis Amphitheatre at Lakewood.

Fans will have the option of a full refund or a credit for 150 percent of the purchased price (the number of tickets originally purchased will also be donated to health care workers). If no action is taken, the ticket will be automatically refunded after 30 days. Visit livenation.com/refund for more details.

Of their “III: The World Tour,” The Lumineers said in a statement that they are disappointed about the lost dates, but look forward to connecting with fans online.

"Thank you for your patience and continued support during this unprecedented time of uncertainty,” they said. “We've been so inspired by your enthusiasm and generosity.”

Some of the other canceled cities include Jacksonville, Charlotte, Tampa and Raleigh.
