Olly Murs' show tomorrow, Saturday 24th May, at bp pulse LIVE has been cancelled.

Olly Murs has announced the cancellation of his highly anticipated performance at bp pulse LIVE in Birmingham, scheduled for Saturday, 24th May, after being forced to leave the stage mid-set in Glasgow due to sudden voice loss.

In an official statement released today, Murs expressed his regret over the cancellations, attributing them to a respiratory infection that has left him unable to perform.

"Thirty minutes into my set in Glasgow I lost my voice and unfortunately had to leave the stage midway through the show," he said. "This has never happened before and not something I take lightly."

Doctors have placed Murs on a strict 48-hour voice rest to prevent further damage to his vocal cords. As a result, shows in both Manchester and Birmingham this weekend have been cancelled.

“I’m deeply sorry,” Murs said, addressing fans in the affected cities. “I’ve been enjoying this tour so much, and am so sorry to let down my fans – but have to put my health first.”

Murs, currently celebrating his 15-year music career with a major tour, assured fans he hopes to return to the stage soon to finish the run “with a bang.”

All ticket holders for the Birmingham show will receive full refunds from their point of purchase. bp pulse LIVE has advised customers to contact their original ticket vendor with any enquiries.
