Pop superstar Pink has announced the unfortunate cancellation of her highly anticipated concert in Bern, Switzerland, scheduled for this Wednesday. The “So What” singer shared the news on her Instagram, citing doctor’s orders as the reason behind the cancellation, leaving fans disappointed but understanding.
Pink, currently on her massive Summer Carnival tour, expressed her sincere regret to her Swiss fans. In her Instagram post on Tuesday, July 2nd, she explained the difficult decision, emphasizing that it was made following medical advice. “I am so sorry that I have had to cancel my show in Bern this Wednesday,” Pink stated, acknowledging the disappointment this would cause.
The announcement detailed that despite her best efforts to perform, consultation with her doctor and exploration of all possible options led to the unavoidable conclusion that continuing with the show was not feasible. Pink conveyed her deep disappointment at having to cancel, highlighting her eagerness to connect with her audience in Switzerland. “I was looking forward to being with you and making memories with you and sharing our show with you and am so disappointed that we have to cancel,” she wrote.
Pink’s Summer Carnival tour has been a global sensation, supporting her 2023 album Trustfall. The tour has already encompassed over 70 performances across Europe and North America, with dozens more dates planned through the end of 2024. For the European leg, Gayle, KidCutUp, and The Script have been supporting acts, while Sheryl Crow joins The Script and KidCutUp for the North American shows.
This is not the first instance of tour adjustments for Pink. Previously, she had to postpone a Texas concert due to a sinus infection and reschedule two Washington state shows due to family medical matters. These prior instances underscore the demanding nature of touring and the importance of prioritizing health.
Concluding her message to fans, Pink sent “love and health” and expressed hope to reschedule soon. Fan reactions online have been overwhelmingly supportive, with many echoing sentiments that her health is the top priority. Comments on her Instagram post emphasize understanding and well-wishes, demonstrating the strong connection Pink has with her fanbase. The cancellation, while disappointing for fans in Switzerland, is a clear reminder of the importance of artist well-being amidst rigorous tour schedules.
