Sam Smith Glasgow Hydro show cancelled hours before gig as singer struck down by illness

Sam Smith cancelled their Glasgow gig at the Ovo Hydro just hours before they were due to go onstage due to illness.

The 30-year-old singer had been due to perform for fans in the city last night but pulled out after stating they and their team had been hit with a virus.

The Unholy hitmaker shared a heartfelt apology on social media and confirmed to fans that the show had been rescheduled to May 25.

They said: "Sailors, I'm so sorry to say but we have to reschedule the Glasgow show to 25th May 2023.

"Myself and a lot of my team have been hit with a virus, that's made us really unwell.

"I want to give the best version of Gloria the Tour and at the moment that's not possible. It was also really important to me that we had another date to move this to straight away.

"We will celebrate Gloria together!! All previous tickets are still valid for the new date. For any more information, go to my website www.samsmithworld.com.

"All my love, Sam x"
