“We know many of you were planning to join us and hope to see you again soon. Refunds will be available from the original point of purchase.”
The band did not provide further details about the reason for the cancellation, and no replacement date has been announced.
Earlier this week, the 2026 edition of OFFLIMITS Music Festival, which was set to be headlined by Shakira and feature acts including the Jonas Brothers, was cancelled. Organisers said they hoped the festival would return in 2027.
Christina Aguilera’s Abu Dhabi concert has also been cancelled. The US singer was scheduled to perform at Etihad Arena on September 25, two days before The Corrs’ show. Ticketmaster informed ticket holders that Aguilera’s concert would no longer take place, with refunds to be processed through the original payment method. No reason for that cancellation was announced.
