“They told me I had to take this seriously and I couldn’t mess around,” the singer says.
Yungblud canceled the remainder of his 2025 tour on the advice of his doctors, who ordered him to “take a break from touring for the remainder of the year.”
The singer spent most of the year on his Idols World Tour, which continues into 2026. another North American stage. However, Yungblud, who recently completed a series of concerts in Europe, is preparing several more concerts in the United States and Latin America before the end of the year.
“This week when I got home from the road and went to get some tests (as I usually do) and my voice and blood tests raised some concerns,” Yungblud wrote to fans on social media, adding that his doctor then told him not to go out.
“It’s in my nature to run and run until I hit the ground, not caring about anything but the music and you guys, but this time I was told I had to take it seriously and I couldn’t give a fuck,” Yungblud said.
The canceled concerts include November shows in Philadelphia, Cleveland and Washington, as well as scheduled dates in Mexico City and Latin America. All tickets for those shows will be refunded, Yungblud said, promising to send a “gift” to any fans affected by the cancellations.
“My heart is broken,” the singer added. “I don't want to cause any lasting damage to myself, we are on a journey that I want to last forever. I understand that some of you will be disappointed. I just want you to know that this is so hard for me to do, but I promise I will make it up to you.”
Yungblud is currently set to return to his Idols Tour in January 2026 for the Australian leg, followed by a UK appearance in April 2026 and then extensive North American tour next summer.
