AUSTIN (KXAN) – Concertgoers who were planning to attend Childish Gambino performances will have to adjust their plans.
Actor and recording artist Donald Glover, who performs under the name Childish Gambino, announced on X on Monday afternoon that he's postponing the rest of the North American tour for his musical project. The announcement came a day before he was set to play the Moody Center in Austin, Texas.
Glover said he decided to postpone the tour to "focus" on his physical health. He said tickets purchased in advance will be honored when the shows are rescheduled.
"Hey everyone. unfortunately i have to postpone the rest of the north american tour to focus on my physical health for a few weeks," Glover wrote on X. "Hold onto your tickets. ALL tickets will be honored for the upcoming dates in north america when they are rescheduled. thanks for the privacy. thanks for the support. thanks for the love."

Glover announced the tour back in May, on the heels of a surprise release called “ATAVISTA,” which itself is a re-release of an album demo previously called "3.15.20." Willow Smith, who uses the stage name Willow, is the opening act for the tour.
“The New World Tour” was Glover's first tour in five years and is expected to be his last under his rap moniker, as he's talked about retiring "Childish Gambino" after the release of his most recent album "Bando Stone and the New World," Billboard reported.
Glover had gotten through more than half of the North American tour dates before postponing the rest. The international dates remain as originally scheduled, with that leg of the tour set to begin Oct. 31. The original tour dates can be viewed in a post announcing the tour on his X account.
There was no indication of when the shows will be rescheduled. The Moody Center made a post on Instagram Tuesday that also said all previously purchased tickets will be honored for the rescheduled date, and Ticketmaster's website has the events for the rest of the leg marked as "postponed." It's unclear if ticketholders are being given a refund option.
