Zayn Malik shocked fans in Newcastle, UK, by canceling his concert on Tuesday (December 3) just minutes before he was set to take the stage. The sudden cancellation left attendees disappointed, and a message was posted to explain the situation, urging ticket holders to contact their point of purchase for reschedules or refunds. The message also advised attendees to wait in the auditorium if they had parents or guardians picking them up.
Taking to his Instagram story, Zayn explained the reason for the cancellation, writing, “I’m so sorry to do this but my voice just isn’t there at all tonight and without it there’s no show.” He expressed regret for the short notice and promised to rest in hopes of being back on stage the following night. “I’m hopeful with some rest tonight I’ll be back on stage tomorrow,” he added, sharing his apologies and love for his Newcastle fans.
Zayn is scheduled to perform in Manchester on Wednesday (December 4), with rescheduled concerts in Edinburgh on Sunday (December 8) and Monday (December 9). Just last week, during another concert, he dedicated a song to his former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne, paying tribute to him in his hometown.
