(CINCINNATI) – Garth Brooks will not come to Cincinnati.
The country music icon announced today that he will be cancelling shows at the next five cities on his Stadium Tour.
The locations include Cincinnati, Charlotte, Baltimore, Foxborough and Nashville.
The cancellations are due to a new wave of COVID-19 spreading across the county.
"In July, I sincerely thought the pandemic was falling behind us. Now, watching this new wave, I realize we are still in the fight and I must do my part. I have asked the wonderful cities of Cincinnati and Charlotte to wait too long and I don't want to now do that same thing to the great folks in Boston and Baltimore. As far as Nashville, we are looking for a make up date from the July rain out and though this is not COVID related, to make them wait makes me sad, as well. So, it is with a heavy heart we announce the decision to cancel all 5 shows but with a hopeful heart, we will reschedule and start over when this wave seems to be behind us," said Garth Brooks.
Approximately 350,000 fans will have their money refunded. For ticket holders, no action is required to obtain a refund. Ticketmaster will issue the refund to the original method of payment used at the time of purchase.
Brooks’ team says new concert dates will be sought in 2022.
