Lauryn Hill and her hip-hop group, the Fugees, have unexpectedly canceled the U.S. dates for their highly anticipated Miseducation Anniversary Tour, which was set to begin this month. Although the tour dates are still listed on Hill’s official website, many U.S. performances have been marked as canceled on Live Nation’s website. The reason for the sudden cancellation has not been disclosed.

The tour was originally scheduled to kick off on Friday in Tampa, Florida, and conclude in Hamburg, Germany, on November 1. While some of the 30-date tour’s concerts, particularly in Europe, still have tickets available, the cancellation of the U.S. shows has left fans frustrated.
The fall edition of The Miseducation Anniversary Tour was intended to be an extension of the 25th-anniversary celebration of Hill’s critically acclaimed debut album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. Last year, Hill had to postpone a Philadelphia concert to go on vocal rest.
Fans expressed their disappointment on social media. “It’s so disheartening being a fan of Lauryn Hill,” one fan wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “Every time I buy Lauryn Hill tickets, she cancels,” lamented another.
