Calabash South Africa 2026 was scheduled to happen on the 7th of February 2026 at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg and on the 11th of February 2026 at DHL Cape Town Stadium.
Sadly, these two events have been cancelled.
The organizers posted this message on Social Media this morning:
‘We’re sad to share that Calabash South Africa 2026 has been cancelled.
Due to reasons beyond everyone’s control, Muse can no longer perform in the UAE, South Africa, and India, and we’ve been unable to secure a suitable replacement headliner at short notice.
Official statement from Muse:
“Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, we will be unable to proceed with the upcoming scheduled shows. This has been a very difficult decision, and one we did not take lightly.”
“We’re truly sorry to everyone who purchased tickets and appreciate your understanding. Refunds will be available from the point of purchase. We hope to be back with you again very soon. Muse”
Fans who have purchased concert tickets, parking, and park & ride tickets will automatically receive a full refund. Refunds have already started and should take 5–10 business days to reflect in your account.

I was really looking forward to seeing these bands live, so like many of you reading this, I’m gutted. Hopefully there will be some really cool events coming our way in 2026, so let’s hold thumbs 😀
