Usher and Chris Brown cancel four stadium dates on R&B tour

Usher and Chris Brown dropped four R&B Tour stadium stops: Baltimore Oct. 17, Cincinnati Oct. 24, Columbia, S.C. Oct. 29, and Indianapolis Oct. 31. Ticket holders got cancellation emails Oct. 9, 2026, and Ticketmaster marked the pages canceled. The promoter said the decision followed sold-out stadium shows and aims "to prioritize the health and well-being of the touring party and crew" so remaining dates can continue safely. Refunds are automatic; transferred-ticket refunds go to the original buyer. CONTESTED: Ticketmaster (via suaragarut.id) puts refunds at 14 to 21 days; Balleralert reports two to three weeks. Complex's headline and Balleralert citing BBC put Brown's UK sentencing at Oct. 26 after a July affray guilty plea from a 2023 nightclub attack, with bail return by Oct. 25; the tour has not tied the cuts to the case. Still on are Houston's second night Oct. 10 and MetLife Stadium Oct. 15. Live Nation's tour resumes Nov. 5 for five Atlanta shows. No rescheduling of the canceled dates has been announced.
