They usually announce the tour in May and it's coming to the end of June and nothing. The UK Facebook page seems very quiet too, no posts since March. Did they once upon a time have a UK office? Due to their financial situation I wouldn't be surprised if that's gone.
I heard they're in serious financial troubles recently and I also heard that this years' tour had much lower attendance than usual. It was quite empty in London in terms of upper tier seats. This might mean they play to smaller and more intimate venues, which if so, I'm excited about. Caught them in Coventry in 2008 in the Skydome (fairly small compared to Wembley) and loved it.
I really want this tour to happen, hence why I'm posting about it, does anyone think it'll happen?

Man, I don't think they have the money to do any kind of tour at the moment. It's sad - but until Dixie realises she needs to give up majority ownership to a buyer, TNA is going to suffer financially.

It might be announced near the end of the year but I wouldn't hold my breath.
TNA nearly went out of business last week, I don't think they have the means to announce an overseas tour six months in advance.

Sorry to bump an old thread but I've been wondering about this too. Do you think TNA are finished touring the UK now or is this just a temporary hurdle?
My last TNA event was in January 2015 in Glasgow, they never came here this year unfortunately. It sucks that Jeff Hardy likely still isn't allowed over here, with their current lack of roster depth, they really need him.

I think due to a combination of this year's poor attendance figures and TNA's current financial situation, any overseas tour is extremely unlikely. Hell, they can barely afford the Impact Zone anymore from what I read. It's so freaking sad. MAYBE they could do like a UK tour, but cross promoted with another US or UK promotion? That might work. |

I honestly feel as though you're 6 Years late. You've missed Table Matches, Ladder Matches, Ultimate X's, Steel Cages. I don't even think Jeff Hardy can come to the UK, so that's him out of it on top of that.

Coventry in 2008 and then every single London show since 2009. So I've seen all of it, saw Jeff Hardy in 2011. Though, I did miss that British Boot Camp show that they did in York Hall that one time, but that doesn't really count in my book since it was just UK try-outs. |

I had an ace time when I won tickets to the Wembley show in 2012. Took my dad along with me to I his first wrestling show. One of a couple of reasons I'll be sad to see the he company disappear (not that I've followed them since 2013).

TNA put a lot of it's funding into the India trip which unfortunately didn't work out and has forced them to cutback on touring altogether.

I must have misread your original post as you not attending since 2008. My mistake. |
