Morrissey Cancels Mexico Concerts Citing 'Extreme Exhaustion'
1 Nov
Summary
- Morrissey cancels two concerts in Mexico due to "extreme exhaustion"
- Bruce Springsteen and Steven Van Zandt perform surprise show at the Stone Pony
- Morrissey's tour plagued by cancellations, including shows in Sweden and the U.S.
As of November 1st, 2025, Morrissey has canceled two upcoming concerts in Mexico. The first was scheduled to take place last night at the Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City, and the second was planned for November 4th at the Auditorio Telmex in Zapopan.
The concert promoter released a statement on Instagram announcing the last-minute cancellations, citing the artist's "extreme exhaustion" as the reason. The announcement also stated that ticket holders would automatically receive refunds to the credit cards used for online purchases, while those who bought tickets through Ticketmaster or the box office can request refunds starting on November 7th.
In a surprising turn of events, on the same day as the cancellation announcement, Morrissey's official website posted a video for his song "I Know It's Gonna Happen Someday," accompanied by several Mexican flag emojis. This move has left fans speculating about the reasons behind the sudden cancellations.

Morrissey's tour has been plagued by similar issues in the past. Over the summer, he canceled a show in Stockholm, Sweden, citing difficulties in securing support from the music industry to complete his European trek. In September, he also canceled concerts in Boston and Connecticut due to a "credible threat" on his life.
Despite these setbacks, Morrissey is scheduled to perform next on November 8th at the Movistar Arena in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with more shows planned in South America through the end of the month. His tour itinerary also lists a show on December 12th in Greece to close out the year, followed by a string of U.S. dates beginning on January 3rd, 2026, in Rancho Mirage, California, and wrapping up on January 22nd in Hollywood, Florida.
In a separate but related development, Bruce Springsteen and Steven Van Zandt were spotted performing a surprise rendition of "Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out" at the iconic Stone Pony venue on the same day as Morrissey's cancellations. This unexpected reunion of the longtime collaborators has delighted fans and sparked excitement in the music community.
