North West Cancels 14‑Date Kimokawaii Tour Days Before Opening Night

The abrupt pullback, announced Friday, leaves ticketing and venues uncertain and disrupts promotion for the 13‑year‑old’s debut EP.

Overview

  • The Kimokawaii Tour, a 14‑date coheadlining run with Molly Santana set to begin August 5 in Dallas, was removed from ticketing sites and most shows were listed as canceled after organizers took down the tour page.
  • North and Santana each posted Instagram Stories confirming the run “isn’t happening anymore” and apologizing to fans while offering no formal explanation or spokesman statement.
  • Ticketing platforms including Ticketmaster and AXS and multiple venue calendars flagged cancellations or removed listings, though one date at The Midway in San Francisco remained listed, leaving the overall status unresolved.
  • Fans who bought tickets face uncertainty about refunds or rescheduling because venues and ticketing firms have not published a standardized refund or transfer plan.
  • The cancellation interrupts promotion for North’s May debut EP N0rth4evr and follows her recent festival appearances and a February signing with independent label Gamma, underscoring career and logistical questions for the young artist.
