Overview
- Summit announced Monday that he will take the rest of August off from touring and withdrew from four scheduled European festival appearances.
- The canceled shows include Belgium’s Pukkelpop, Malta’s UNO Malta/Radio 1 Malta, the U.K.’s Creamfields and France’s Touquet Music Beach Festival.
- In an Instagram Stories message Summit said he “rarely ever” cancels but must “recharge my battery” and finish heavy tour preparations before the fall.
- The pause is tied to his CTRL ESCAPE arena tour, a 21‑date North American run that opens Oct. 1 and now concludes Dec. 12 with a headline date at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
- Coverage and a recent NYLON interview frame the choice as a response to modern DJ workload—constant festival dates, an Ibiza residency, running a label and events, merchandising and social media—and Summit still has September international dates plus his Experts Only Festival and a Las Vegas set scheduled.
