Concert promoter OCESA announced the cancellation of shows planned for Oct. 31 and Nov. 4
Morrissey has canceled two concerts in Mexico. One was expected to take place last night at Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City, and the other at Auditorio Telmex in Zapopan on Nov. 4.
Yesterday, the concert promoter released a statement on Instagram announcing the last-minute cancellation news, citing that it was “due to the artist’s extreme exhaustion.” The announcement also said that those who purchased tickets online would automatically receive a refund to the credit card used. Those who purchased tickets via Ticketmaster or the box office can request refunds beginning on Nov. 7 at the point of purchase.
On Saturday following the promoter’s cancellation announcement, Morrissey’s official website posted a video for his song “I Know It’s Gonna Happen Someday” and captioned the post with several Mexican flag emojis along with the title of the 1992 song.
Morrissey fans are likely aware that show cancellations can and do happen. Over the summer, he canceled his show in Stockholm, Sweden the day of the concert, citing he had been struggling to secure support from the music industry in order to complete his European trek. In September, he canceled concerts in Boston and Connecticut due to a “credible threat” on his life.
As of this moment, Morrissey is scheduled to perform next on Nov. 8 at Movistar Arena in Buenos Aires, Argentina with more shows planned in South America through the end of this month. His tour itinerary lists another 2025 show on Dec. 12 in Greece to close out the year. He returns stateside in January with a string of U.S. dates beginning on Jan. 3 in Rancho Mirage, California, and wrapping Jan. 22 in Hollywood, Florida.
