Kacey Musgraves fans in three major cities are getting refund emails they never wanted to see. The country star has canceled her August 20 show in Chicago, her August 29 show in Boston, and her September 2 show in Brooklyn — all part of her upcoming“Middle of Nowhere Tour.”And so far, nobody’s saying why.
Ticketmaster sent out automatic notifications to ticket holders letting them know their purchases would be refunded to their original payment method. That’s the only communication fans have received. On Reddit, the speculation is running wild. Some fans think the tour might not have been selling well enough in those markets. Others wonder if the venues booked were just a bad fit. And plenty of folks are bringing up Kacey’s broken rib from a fall she took back in June 2025. That injury forced her to postpone a show then, and people are wondering if she’s still dealing with lingering pain or other health issues.
Whatever the reason, it’s a tough way to kick off a tour. Kacey Musgraves is one of country music’s most beloved voices, and her fans were ready to see her live this summer. We’re hoping for an update soon — and we’ll let you know as soon as we hear anything. What’s your take on this? Do you think artists owe fans an explanation when they cancel shows? Drop your thoughts in the comments.
