Fans may have to wait a bit longer to see Lauryn Hill and the Fugees on the road.
Hill and her hip-hop group Fugees, who were set to kick off a new leg of The Miseducation Anniversary Tour beginning this month, have abruptly canceled the musical outing.
While the tour’s dates remain available on Hill’s official website, many of the performances have been flagged as canceled on the Live Nation website. A reason for the cancellation was not disclosed.
“Unfortunately, the event organizer has had to cancel your event,” a message on the Live Nation website reads.
Ticket refunds will be issued automatically to concertgoers “as soon as funds are received from the event organizer,” per Live Nation.

The tour was set to begin Friday with a show in Tampa, Florida, and wrap in Hamburg, Germany, on Nov. 1.
Some concerts on the 30-date tour still contain ticket purchasing options, including European shows in Stockholm, Berlin and Hamburg. It’s unclear if these shows have yet to be canceled.
USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Hill, the Fugees and Live Nation for comment.
The fall edition of The Miseducation Anniversary Tour was going to serve as an extension of the 25th anniversary tour Hill and the Fugees embarked on last year to celebrate Hill’s highly-acclaimed debut album "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill."
Hill was forced to postpone a Philadelphia concert in October 2023 to go on vocal rest.

Disappointed fans quickly took to social media to lament the tour’s cancellation.
“It's so disheartening being a fan of Lauryn Hill.” @PLoJetson wrote on X. “Last October, a(n) hour before the show in Dallas, it was cancelled with no warning. I tried again this run even when EVERYONE clowned me saying I was foolish for trying. Cancelled AGAIN. I love Lauryn man. But damn yo. DO BETTER.”
“Bought Lauryn Hill tickets and about 15 minutes later, she cancelled her tour,” X user @discophobe wrote. “God is pointing and laughing at me.”
“I cannot make this (stuff) up,” @lucydivittorio wrote on X. “Every time I buy Lauryn Hill tickets, she cancels.”
