Due to a severe bout of food poisoning, Zayn Malik had to cancel the last concert of his initial solo tour.
On March 28, the 32-year-old declared that he wouldn’t be able to hold his third concert at Mexico City‘s Palacio de los Deportes for that evening.
In a sad message on Instagram, Zayn shared that he won’t be able to give the concert tonight in Mexico City because he has been unwell since the morning. Despite his efforts to carry on, his body simply can’t manage it.
The singer of “Pillowtalk” went on to say, “I’m truly sorry to disappoint you. The affection and vitality I always sense from my fans is priceless, and it cuts me deeply to miss out on this experience with you. I appreciate your patience, and please remember that all my love is being sent to each of you.
Later in the day, the former member of One Direction disclosed additional information about his illness. On Instagram Stories, he expressed, “Mexico, I hold a deep affection for you despite the fact that my team and I fell gravely ill with food poisoning…” He further added, “I can’t stress enough – I’m still feeling its effects.

The shows, your enthusiasm, your creative fan projects – they’ve filled me with an abundance of love and a sensation I can hardly put into words. Sending you immense affection.
Zayn Malik kicked off his “Stairway to the Sky Tour” back in November, coinciding with the launch of his fourth studio album titled “Room Under the Stairs“. In his opening performance in Mexico City on March 25th, he surprised fans by starting the concert with the One Direction song “Night Changes”.

He expressed his gratitude to the audience following the performance, captured on a viral video, by saying, “Wow, that was incredibly impressive!” He added, “At one moment, I felt like I might tear up. It’s unbelievable.
Additionally, throughout the tour, Zayn has ended his performances with a heartfelt tribute to his late bandmate, Liam Payne, who tragically passed away at 31 years old in October, following an accidental fall from a balcony of a Buenos Aires hotel room. The remaining One Direction members—Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, and Niall Horan—came together to honor Liam at his funeral in November.
