Drake has officially pulled the plug on his postponed Australia and New Zealand tour dates, much to the disappointment of fans across the region.
Earlier this year, the One Dance rapper performed in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane as part of his Anita Max Win Tour. However, four scheduled shows in March—including stops at Brisbane Entertainment Centre, Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, and Spark Arena in Auckland—were postponed due to a “scheduling conflict.”
Now, months after the initial delay, Live Nation Australia has confirmed that the shows will no longer take place.
“Live Nation Australia regrets to inform you that the previously postponed Drake shows in Australia and New Zealand have now been officially cancelled. Despite extensive efforts to find a solution, rescheduling within the necessary timeframe was not possible,” the official statement read.
“Drake remains committed to returning and performing these shows when his schedule permits.”
All affected ticketholders will receive full refunds.
While Drake has not personally addressed the cancellation, he is currently on his Some Special Shows 4 U tour alongside PartyNextDoor, with their next performance scheduled for Wednesday night in Amsterdam.
