Due to illness, Charli XCX's performance tonight (August 31) in Brighton as a part of the National Lottery and the Music Venue Trust's Revive Live tour has been postponed.
The singer was due to play the Concorde 2 venue tonight for the fundraising tour, which was launched in 2020 in an effort to help UK grassroots venues survive post-COVID.
In a statement yesterday (August 30), Charli said she was suffering from a stomach bug and would keep fans updated on her wellbeing ahead of the show.
She said, "Guys, I’ve had a stomach bug for the last 48 hours since I woke up the day after Reading Fest. It’s been brutal. I was hoping I’d feel better by this evening so I could tackle the Brighton show tomorrow, but I just don’t know if the universe is going to let it happen for me.
“I’m resting in bed and have literally been sleeping through my fever the past two days." I have just been prescribed some antibiotics, so fingers crossed. I’ll keep you all updated.
On Wednesday morning, she then confirmed that the show was cancelled and that she was looking into the possibility of rescheduling the gig for later this week.
In the second update, Charli wrote: “Angels, unfortunately I have to postpone my show tonight in Brighton for the Music Venue Trust." I have some kind of severe stomach bug/food poisoning and my doctor has advised me to rest so I can recover and hopefully be able to go ahead with the show at a later date this week.
My team are working with the venue to see if we can reschedule for the next few days when I’m better. They will have an update for you by the end of the day and will advise on ticket validity and next steps etc.
