The young singer will step back for a while to focus on her health before going back on stage.
The 24-year-old British pop singer-songwriter, Lola Young, has announced that she will be cancelling all upcoming performances and appearances "for the foreseeable future" following a dramatic collapse during the music festival "All Things Go" in New York.
Young shared her decision with her fans in a social media post, citing the need to focus on her health and well‑being.
What Happened
On September 27, 2025, Young collapsed on stage during her performance at the All Things Go Music Festival at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens. She was singing "Conceited", a song from her album "This Wasn't Meant For You Anyway", when video footage shows her falling backward.
At the beginning of the performance, she had told the audience that she had been through "a tricky couple of days", referring to her recent emotional and physical struggles. One week before, she already had to cancel her concert in New Jersey at short notice because of a "sensitive matter" related to her mental health, according to her manager.
The day after the incident, Young told fans that she was "doing okay", but cancelled her scheduled appearance in Washington, D.C.
A few days later, Young posted a statement on Instagram:
"I'm going away for a while. It pains me to say I have to cancel everything for the foreseeable future. Thank you for all the love and support. I'm so sorry to let anyone down who has bought a ticket to see me, it hurts me more than you know. Obviously you will be entitled to a full refund. I really hope you'll give me a second chance once I've had some time to work on myself and come back stronger."
Young has been open in the past about her struggles with mental health. She has a diagnosed condition of schizoaffective disorder, and discussions around addiction and wellbeing have been part of her public story.
