Tyla concert chronology |
The Tyla Tour is the upcoming debut concert tour by South African singer Tyla in support of her debut studio album Tyla (2024).[1] The tour was scheduled to commence on 21 March 2024 in Oslo, Norway,[2] and conclude on 28 May 2024 in Minneapolis, United States.[3] Two weeks before the tour was scheduled to start, Tyla announced that the European leg of the tour was postponed without further notice and the North American leg of the tour was cancelled due to an injury that the singer had been suffering with prior to the tour's commencement.[4][5][6]
Background and promotion
The tour was supposed to visit both North America and Europe; however, there were no dates in Tyla's native South Africa.[7] On 5 December 2023, Tyla took to Instagram to announce the tour along with the dates and cities prior to the release of her self-titled digital extended play (EP), scheduled to be included on her debut studio album Tyla (2024). The EP consists of the songs "Water", "Truth or Dare", "On and On", "Butterflies", and "Water (Remix)".[2][8]
On 7 March 2024, exactly 2 weeks before the commence of the tour, Tyla took to Instagram to announce the cancelation of the North American leg of the tour entirely and plans to reschedule the UK and Europe tour dates with a message that reads:[6]
My Tygers,
All of you know that this moment you have all helped me transform into a reality, has been life-long dream. I am so grateful and humbled by this past year and the way it's changed my life I can never thank you enough for all your loving support, all the joy, the laughter, and the wins!
As much as this is something I would rather have dealt with privately, its important that I share what I have to share with you today. For the past year I've been silently suffering with an injury that has tragically worsened. I've seen doctors and specialists with high hopes but the pain has only become more agonizing as has the severity of the situation.
I am absolutely heartbroken to have to say this as of right now I won't be able to proceed with the tour. In consulting with medical professionals it's become increasingly clear that continuing any festival or tour dates would jeopardize my long-term health and safety.
Words cannot describe my frustration at this pivotal point in my career. So please know that my team and I are working diligently on a spectacular show for you as soon as I am recovered and ready to return safely onstage this summer.
For North American headline dates, your tickets will automatically be refunded, for all other territories you will be contacted by your ticket provider regarding options, please keep a look out for new dates and information.
