Zayn Malik has made the decision to cancel all U.S. dates for his 2026 tour, announcing the news in an emotional message on his Instagram story.
“To my fans: Thank you so much for all the support and love you’ve shown me on the album release and more importantly your love, prayers, and well wishes for my health. I’ve felt it, and it’s meant the world. I’ve been at home recovering and I’m doing well and will be better and stronger than before.
“I’ve had to take another look at my schedule for the months ahead and have to reduce the number of shows on the KONNAKOL Tour. I want to make sure I still get out and see as many of you as I possibly can. I’m really looking forward to playing these shows for you, and I hope to see the rest of you around the world very soon. Big Love, Z”
This comes after Malik was hospitalized last month with an unspecified illness. While the U.S. dates have been canceled, ticket sales for dates in Europe and México are still ongoing. His first U.S. tour day was set for July 19 at the Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, followed by stops in Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, St. Paul, Chicago, Indianapolis, Nashville, Phoenix, San Diego, Inglewood, Anaheim, San Francisco, and Seattle. The tour is now set to begin on May 23 in London, with the singer performing at The O2 Arena.
