Singer Justin Bieber, whose concert was to be held in New Delhi on October 18 this year, has officially been called off due to his health issues. The organisers of the mega concert confirmed the news, days after assuring fans that the concert will happen.
An official statement was issued by BookMyShow on Thursday, confirming the update. ‘We are extremely disappointed to share that the 'Justin Bieber Justice World Tour - India' scheduled for October 18th, 2022 at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, New Delhi has been cancelled owing to the singer's health condition. We have just been informed that due to health concerns, he will unfortunately not be able to make it next month. Along with New Delhi in India, the artist has also cancelled other stops in the tour's run-up to the India show including Chile, Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, Bahrain, UAE and Israel," BookMyShow's spokesperson said.
BookMyShow also confirmed that they would refund the ticket amount to people.
‘BookMyShow has already initiated a full and complete refund of the ticket amount for all consumers who had purchased tickets for the show. The complete refund will be reflected within 10 working days in the customer's source account of the original transaction. We deeply regret the inconvenience caused but we promise, there is a lot more music and live entertainment coming your way, soon,’ the statement read.
Last week, Justin took to social media and announced that he is taking a break from performing indefinitely, and cancelling his Justice Tour. This concert would have marked Bieber's second visit to India. He had performed in Mumbai as part of his Purpose World Tour in 2017.
