Zayn Malik Cancels Mexico City Concert After Battling ‘Severe Food Poisoning’

Zayn Malik was forced to cancel a show in Mexico after suffering from food poisoning.

The last-minute cancellation occurred on Friday (March 28), when the 32-year-old “Pillowtalk” singer was set to perform at Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes as part of his Stairway to the Sky Tour.

“I’m heartbroken to say that I won’t be able to perform tonight in Mexico City,” Malik wrote on his Instagram Stories just hours before the show was scheduled to begin. “I’ve been really sick since this morning and, despite trying everything to push through, my body just isn’t allowing it.”

The former One Direction member added, “I’m so sorry to let you down. The love and energy I always feel from my fans mean the world to me, and it hurts deeply to miss this moment with you. Thank you for your understanding, and please know I’m sending all of my love to each of you.”

Hours later, Zayn offered another update on his health. “Mexico, I love you even though myself and many of my crew got severe food poisoning,” the musician wrote on his Instagram Stories. “It’s no joke — still struggling. I’m so sorry.”

He continued, “To my fans, I’m so sorry — these shows have made me feel alive, happy, grateful and at home, and that’s all because of you. These shows, your energy, your fan projects filled me with so much love and a feeling I can’t even describe. Big love.”

Just days earlier, on March 25, Malik performed at Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes, where he surprised fans by singing one of One Direction’s most beloved hits for the first time in a decade. During the concert, Zayn shocked the audience when he performed the 1D single “Night Changes” from the group’s 2014 album, Four. “I haven’t sung this song in 10 years. Thank you, that was amazing, I almost cried,” he told the surprised audience.

Malik launched his Stairway to the Sky Tour in November 2024 after rescheduling the trek following his One Direction bandmate Liam Payne’s death.
