Harry Styles reschedules Nov. 5 to Nov. 7 shows at Kia Forum due to illness
A number of the remaining Harry Styles shows scheduled for the Kia Forum are set to be rescheduled due to an apparent illness within the band.
The Forum tweeted the announcement earlier Saturday, indicating that the shows from Nov. 5 to Nov. 7 would be rescheduled, hours after the Friday night show was also postponed.
The shows would instead be played on Jan. 26, 27 and 29 in 2023. All of the tickets for the rescheduled shows were to be honored on the new date, according to The Forum.
Styles addressed the postponement on Instagram on Saturday, issuing a statement to fans, which read:
"Towards the end of the show on Wednesday I started feeling ill and I've been in bed with the flu ever since. I've been doing everything I can to be able to sing tonight, but I'm leaving the doctor now and I'm devastated that it's just not possible.
Until very recently I haven't had to postpone a show due to illness in the 12 years I've been touring. I'm so sorry to do it, and if there was anyway I could do the show I would.
I'm sorry this news is coming so close to show time, but it was my sincerest hope to be able to play for you tonight. I know several of you have planned trips to LA to see the show, and it means the absolute world to me.
The shows on November 5th, 6th, 7th will be postponed until January 26th, 27th, 29th 2023. Everything else will play as planned.
I can't wait to see you then, and I'm so sorry."
Styles' "Love on Tour" began in late 2021, with a brief break from Nov. 2021 to June 2022.
They began a 15-show block at the Kia Forum in Inglewood on Oct. 23, which they are still expected to finish by Nov. 15.
After completing their Los Angeles set, they'll head abroad for a series of shows in South America before returning to Los Angeles for the rescheduled shows.
