Ghost Resumes Mexico City Shows After Last-Minute Cancellation as Forge Apologizes

Refunds are being issued for the 23 September date under consumer rules that do not mandate extra compensation for artist illness.

Overview

  • OCESA canceled Ghost’s 23 September Palacio de los Deportes show minutes before the 8 p.m. start after vocalist Tobias Forge suffered a food-related intoxication.
  • The band performed on 24 September in Mexico City, where Forge told fans he felt better and apologized on stage for the prior night’s cancellation.
  • OCESA and Ticketmaster said online purchases will be refunded automatically to the original card, and in-person Ticketmaster refunds begin 26 September at the point of purchase.
  • No rescheduling has been announced for the canceled date, and the remaining 25 September show remains listed to proceed as planned.
  • Profeco guidance cited by outlets notes attendees are entitled to full refunds but not the additional 20% compensation when an artist’s illness forces a cancellation.
