Justin Timberlake Cancels Columbus Show Again Due to Flu
Justin Timberlake postponed his scheduled concert in Columbus, Ohio, on Thursday night (Feb. 27) as he is still fighting the flu. The concert, which was to be held at Nationwide Arena, was called off barely minutes before the doors opened.

Taking to Instagram Stories, Timberlake shared the unfortunate news with fans. "You guys, I’m heartbroken," he wrote. "I have to cancel the show tonight. I went into Soundcheck to battle the flu, and it’s gotten the best of me. It kills me to disappoint you, and my team worked so hard to make this show happen. I want to reassure you, that you’ll be getting refunds for your tickets. I love you all."
Rescheduled Date Canceled Again
This Columbus stop on his Forget Tomorrow World Tour was initially planned for November but was postponed, along with five other shows, due to Justin Timberlake suffering from bronchitis and laryngitis. Now, despite efforts to reschedule, the show has been canceled again as the singer struggles with his health.
Supporting His Latest Album Release
The Forget Tomorrow World Tour is promoting Timberlake’s sixth solo studio album, Everything I Thought It Was. The album, released in March 2024, features the moody R&B single "Selfish" and follows his 2018 project Man of the Woods.
What's Next for the Tour?
Although the North American leg of the tour had its letdowns, Timberlake will resume performing in April with a Mexican date. His global tour marches into the summer and dates for his European tour begin June 2 in Milan, Italy, and extend through July 8 in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg. Tickets for viewing him perform live on upcoming tours are available.
