Wizkid cancels major U.S. concert venues ahead of his 'Morayo' tour
Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Wizkid has cancelled several U.S. dates on his highly anticipated 'Morayo' tour.
Multiple award-winning singer and performer Wizkid will not be holding his grand-scale concert return for fans in the US, as some of his concerts in major venues in the US for the Morayo tour have been cancelled.
The 'IDK' crooner was expected to take to the stage in different parts of the world in a highly anticipated return following the initial cancellation of his tour following the tragic passing of his mother in 2023.
The cancelled shows include:
June 5: Atlanta, GA – State Farm Arena
June 7: New York, NY – Madison Square Garden
June 19: Houston, TX – Toyota Centre

An official statement to clarify the situation has yet to be released, but many fans eagerly await further updates from his team on where to go from here and whether the concert will be rescheduled for a new date.
It is expected that the European leg of the Morayo Tour will proceed as planned, as there have been no announcements to suggest otherwise.
The action has sparked reactions on social media, and here are some of the reactions below:
Wizkid cancelling his tour without a detailed explanation may seem unfair to fans, but it’s not unusual in the music industry. Artists cancel shows all the time for personal reasons — it’s normal. The difference here is that people often hold Wizkid to a different standard.

This is also what wizkid is getting from being nonchalant. In this world, nothing is free. If you want something you go for it.

You released a very good album, just digital PR. You don’t even put your face out there and boom, you want to do an arena tour in America. Cmon now
