ILLNESS has forced the postponement of Adam Ant’s Antmusic 2024 tour, including Wednesday’s return to York Barbican.
Ticket holders will be contacted by their point of sale and there is no need to contact the venue.
The chart-topping Adam And The Ants front man, who turns 70 on November 3, plans to re-schedule his shows for 2025.
Since October 18, he has called off gigs in Cambridge, Southend, Bournemouth, Birmingham, Guildford and Liverpool on the day but now he has decided to postpone all remaining shows on account of an “inflamed throat”.
A statement from Adam Ant reads: “It is with great sadness that I must tell you that I am postponing and rescheduling the Antmusic 2024 tour.
“As you know, I have missed some shows this week [Editor: he is referring to last week] due to ill health, and I am uncertain how much longer it is going to take me to be stage fit and ready to bring you all the hits that you love.
“Performing live is one of the things that brings great joy to me and I am so disappointed that at this moment in time I am unable to.
“There will be an announcement next week as my team work out the new dates, so please hold on to your tickets as they will all be valid for the new shows.
“Good news is that we hope to be able to add some extra shows and additional venues as well and make this next tour bigger and better. I love you all and thank you all for your kind messages over this past week. Love, Adam.”
Please rest up Adam and get better. Put your feet up and have a nice cup of tea – we all love you!
Feel better Adam and Have a very happy birthday Nov 3
