Yungblud performs during 2026 Bonnaroo Music And Arts Festival. Erika Goldring/Getty Images Yungblud has “reluctantly” withdrawn from his performance at a Canadian music festival this weekend, as his management “made the decision” to pull him from the fest.
“To all my family in Canada I apologize for not being there with you all this weekend — I’m currently in a place where I’m working on myself and taking time off at home in the UK,” the singer said in a statement.
“I’m taking this extremely seriously and facing head on what’s going on for the good of the long term,” he continued. “I will never take any of this for granted and I will see you all soon. I love you all.”

Yungblud was scheduled to perform this Sunday, July 12 at Calgary’s Cowboys Music Festival, the latest stop on his 2026 Idols World Tour. According to the singer’s management, Yungblud isn’t expected to miss any more upcoming gigs on his tour, which resumes July 28 in Indianapolis. ““We are sorry for any disappointment this may cause, these are not decisions we take lightly,” Yungblud’s management added.
Earlier this week, the singer shared a vulnerable post on social media where he opened up about accusations that he’s an “industry plant.” Fellow artists — including SZA, Anthrax’s Scott Ian, and more — commented on his post, giving him support.
