Phoebe Bridgers Postpones UK Shows After Appendicitis Hospitalization

Her recovery will determine whether the larger Lost Tour starts as planned in September.

Overview

  • Bridgers revealed on Wednesday that she was hospitalized with appendicitis and posted a hospital photo that said, “I got appendicitis for my birthday,” and promised to make the missed dates up to fans.
  • The short run of intimate UK events tied to her new album Lost Weekend — Kingston (Aug. 19), Brighton (Aug. 20) and Bristol (Aug. 21) — plus a same‑day signing at Rough Trade East have been postponed.
  • Hosts including Banquet Records and Rough Trade East said they are coordinating with Bridgers’ global team and will notify ticket holders through DICE about rescheduled dates or refunds.
  • Health guidance cited in coverage notes appendicitis usually needs urgent hospital treatment and can require surgery, a factor that will shape the timing of any rescheduled appearances.
  • Lost Weekend was released Aug. 14 and has drawn strong reviews; the arena Lost Tour remains scheduled to begin in September pending her recovery, while release‑week promotions are now disrupted.
