Michael Kiwanuka Cancels All Upcoming Shows Due to Continued Illness

Michael Kiwanuka has cancelled all his upcoming shows, including numerous summer festival appearances across Europe and a North American tour supporting Mumford & Sons, due to continued illness and on medical advice. The Mercury Prize-winning artist expressed deep disappointment at having to withdraw from events such as All Together Now in Ireland, Sziget Festival in Hungary, Pukkelpop in Belgium, Victorious Festival in the UK, and others. Festival organizers have begun announcing replacement acts, with Kaiser Chiefs stepping in for Kiwanuka at Victorious. Kiwanuka's latest album, Small Changes, released in late 2024, has received critical acclaim for its emotive and softly impactful sound. The cancellations affect a busy festival schedule that had included major European events and were part of his broader plans for 2025. Support and well wishes for his recovery have been extended by festival organizers and fans alike.
