Morrissey has canceled the first concerts of his 2026 tour, calling off his January 3 and January 6 shows in Rancho Mirage and San Diego, California, due to an adverse reaction to prescription medication, though no further medical details were given. These cancellations continue the former Smiths’ frontman’s recent pattern of cancelling and postponing live dates linked to health issues, scheduling conflicts, and safety concerns. In November, Morrissey canceled his entire South American tour due to “extreme exhaustion.” Ticket holders have been advised to seek refunds through their original purchase points, as the venues’ websites list both shows as being postponed indefinitely with no replacement dates scheduled. Morrissey’s next confirmed show remains January 10 in San Antonio, Texas, a city he has not performed in for over 15 years. That concert is a make-up date for a postponed May 8 show, and follows previously cancelled shows there in 2016 and 2017. (Billboard)
