FKA Twigs Postpones North American Tour Dates Due to Visa Issues
Recent Developments in the Eusexua Tour
Last month, FKA Twigs announced the postponement of several North American concerts as part of her Eusexua Tour, attributing the decision to visa complications. Unfortunately, the situation has worsened, leading to further postponements and outright cancellations of key performances, including notable festival appearances in Mexico and California.
Official Statement from FKA Twigs
In a heartfelt message shared on social media, FKA Twigs expressed her devastation over the ongoing issues. “I am devastated to share the news that due to ongoing visa issues I am not able to see through any of my scheduled tour dates for the remainder of April across North America, including Ceremonia and Coachella,” she wrote. Twigs assured her fans that she is actively working to reschedule the affected performances. She directed attendees to their point of purchase for details and refund information regarding headline shows and promised to provide updates as soon as possible.
Impacted Tour Dates
FKA Twigs was slated to perform at the Axe Ceremonia music festival in Mexico City on April 6, followed by two appearances at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in Indio, California, on April 11 and April 18. This would have marked her significant return to Coachella, as she had not graced the festival stage since her debut in 2015.
Reasons Behind the Postponement
Initially, FKA Twigs cited that “production did not fill out the correct paperwork in a timely manner for us to have our visas to come to the U.S.A. and perform.” This administrative oversight has now led to the need for new dates to be arranged for shows previously scheduled in San Francisco, New York, and Toronto.
