Lola Young Cancels Upcoming Shows Following Onstage Collapse
British singer-songwriter Lola Young has announced the cancellation of all her upcoming performances. This decision follows an onstage collapse during her set at the All Things Go Music Festival in New York City on Saturday, September 27, 2025. The 24-year-old artist shared the news via an Instagram post, expressing her need to prioritize her health and well-being.
Details of the Cancellation
Young's announcement included an apology to fans who had purchased tickets and an assurance that they would receive full refunds. The cancelled performances include her North American tour, which was scheduled to begin in Toronto on November 1st and conclude in Los Angeles in December. She stated she was "going away for a while" to focus on her personal well-being.
"I'm going away for a while. It pains me to say I have to cancel everything for the foreseeable future. Thank you for all the love and support. I'm so sorry to let anyone down who has bought a ticket to see me, it hurts me more than you know." - Lola Young, Instagram Post
The announcement also impacted a scheduled performance at the Bomb Factory in Dallas on November 21st, which was highly anticipated due to the venue's smaller size compared to the artist's rising popularity.
The Onstage Incident and Subsequent Reactions
During her performance at the All Things Go Festival, Young was seen swaying and subsequently collapsed backwards while singing her song "Conceited". Fellow artist Doechii, who performed after Young, encouraged the crowd to show their support. Prior to the collapse, Young had cancelled a performance in New Jersey, citing mental health concerns.
