The Weeknd was supposed to tour across Australia and New Zealand this fall, but it will take a while before he heads to the Land Down Under. The Canadian singer postponed the Australian leg of After Hours til Dawn Tour due to “unforeseen circumstances”.

The Weeknd’s fans received an email from the ticketing companies announcing the postponement of the Australian leg of his most recent tour, which reads the following:

“Due to unforeseen circumstances, we must reschedule the Australia/New Zealand tour. New dates will be announced next year and current tickets will be valid for the new shows. Refunds will be available for those unable to attend the new dates. Deeply disappointed but can’t wait to be there with you!”

The Weeknd was supposed to kick off a new series of concerts at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium on November 20. The Australian leg of his tour also included three concerts in Sydney, four in Melbourne, and two in Auckland, and they’ll all be rescheduled at a later date.

After Hours til Dawn Tour kicked off in July last year, in support of The Weeknd’s albums After Hours and Dawn FM. He performed over 60 concerts in North America, Europe, and Latin America before deciding to postpone the Oceania leg.
