The Grammy Award-winning artist previously planned on postponing the North American dates when telling fans to hold onto their tickets, but with surgery needed and an extended recovery time, that would not be possible.
“As of now I have surgery scheduled and need time out to heal. My path to recovery is something I need to confront seriously. With that said, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of the North American tour and the UK and European dates,” he continued.
Fans who purchased tickets will be able to receive a refund at the point of purchase. There’s no timetable on when Glover will be healthy enough to hit the road again.
“Tickets will be refunded at point of purchase,” the multi-hyphenate concluded. “I want nothing more than to bring this show to the fans and perform. Until then, thanks for love, privacy, and support.”
Childish Gambino was originally slated to wrap up his North American leg on Oct. 3 before heading across the pond on Halloween. Shows were scheduled for Norway, France, Belgium, Ireland and the U.K. throughout the rest of 2024.
The Atlanta creator released his final album under the Childish Gambino moniker, Bando Stone and the New World, in August. The LP debuted at No. 16 on the Billboard 200 and featured assists from Jorja Smith, Flo Milli, Khruangbin and more.
