Chance The Rapper axes European dates after "scheduling conflict"
Chance The Rapper has pulled out of a number of European festival appearances citing "scheduling conflicts beyond his control".
The dates, due to take place after his upcoming North American tour, include shows at Sweden's Way Out West, Norway's Øya, Denmark's HAVEN, and Pukkelpop in Belgium.
"It is with regret that Chance the Rapper has to cancel his upcoming performance at the Way Out West and his European festival tour in August," reads a statement on the Gothenburg fest's website. "This is due to scheduling conflicts beyond his control. Chance sends his apologies to his fans and looks forward to returning to Europe soon. "
"We are deeply disappointed, at all levels, over this," say the festival.
Last year Chance pulled out of European shows due to "personal reasons".
