THE WEEKND'S PLANS HAVE CHANGED

The Weeknd has canceled his performance at the Rose Bowl scheduled for 1/25 and pushed back the release of his next album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, from 1/24 to 1/31.

The XO/Republic artist made the announcement via Instagram on Monday evening (1/13), explaining that his decision was based on the ongoing wildfires in L.A.

"Out of respect and concern for the people of Los Angeles County, I am canceling the Rose Bowl concert originally scheduled for January 25," he wrote. "The city has always been a profound source of inspiration for me, and my thoughts are with everyone impacted during this difficult time. In light of this, I have also decided to push the release of my album to 1/31. My focus remains on supporting the recovery of these communities and aiding their incredible people as they rebuild."

Hurry Up Tomorrow is the follow-up to 2022's Dawn FM and the final installment in a trilogy that began with 2020's After Hours.
