Fans of EXO‘s Suho were left stunned and frustrated when his highly anticipated European and Dubai tour was abruptly canceled just one week before it was set to begin.
Titled SU:HOME, the tour was scheduled to kick off between September 10 and 20, 2024, with stops planned in major cities, including London, Paris, Düsseldorf, Berlin, Warsaw, and Dubai.
The cancellation announcement came as a shock to fans who had already made extensive preparations, including purchasing concert tickets, booking hotels, and arranging travel plans. Many expressed their anger and disappointment, particularly as the notice of cancellation came so close to the tour’s starting date.
The official statement from concert organizer Applewood revealed that the decision was made due to inadequate preparations by the local promoter, Twisted Talent. They explained that the main concern was ensuring the safety of the artist and the fans and maintaining the concert’s quality. Despite the efforts made, it was decided that continuing under the current conditions would not be feasible.
In their apology, the organizers emphasized that they regretted the inconvenience and expressed remorse over the situation. However, they assured fans that the decision was not taken lightly and that they prioritized safety above all. They also mentioned that further details regarding refunds would be shared soon through the local promoter responsible for ticket sales.
