Morrissey Cancels Two New England Shows After ‘Credible Threat’ to His Life

Investigators are examining a prior online threat, with remaining tour dates still listed.

Overview

  • Friday's Foxwoods show in Mashantucket, Connecticut, and Saturday's date at Boston's MGM Music Hall were called off at short notice.
  • Morrissey's team and the Boston venue cited a credible threat to the singer's life as the reason for the cancellations.
  • Ottawa police charged 26-year-old Noah Castellano over an alleged Sept. 4 Bluesky post threatening to kill Morrissey before his Sept. 12 CityFolk set; he was released on $5,000 bail.
  • News reports say it is unclear whether the New England cancellations are connected to the Ottawa case or to any other threats.
  • All tickets for the canceled shows will be refunded automatically, and listings still show upcoming tour stops including Philadelphia.
