After taking out fourth place on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Outta Here!, UK rapper Aitch was scheduled to tour Australia and New Zealand. Unfortunately, the Manchester MC has been forced to cancel his run of January dates due to “unforeseen circumstances.”

“I’m really sorry to say I have to cancel my upcoming shows in NZ and Australia due to unforeseen circumstances,” he said in a statement. “I know how many of you had plans around these dates and I hate letting you down. I’ll be back as soon as I can. Thank you for the love and understanding.”

The tour was set to be Aitch’s first down under since 2023, when he was part of the Spilt Milk lineup. There has been no talk of rescheduled dates, with punters urged to contact their point of sale for refund information.

Taking his name from the Manchester postcode

Breaking through in 2018 with sleeper hit ‘Straight Rhymez’, Aitch quickly became a favourite of the UK hip hop scene.

He released his debut album, Close To Home, in 2022, which peaked at #2 on the UK Album Charts, and followed up this year with 4, named after the Manchester postcode (M40).
