Concertgoers heading to Live at the Marquee on Tuesday evening were informed just four hours before doors were due to open that James Arthur's show had been postponed due to illness.

Organisers said the concert will be rescheduled, with a new date to be announced.

The show was due to begin on Tuesday evening, with doors scheduled to open at 6.30pm. Essex singer-songwriter Ruby Poole was due to perform at 8pm, before James Arthur was set to take to the stage at 9pm.

Arthur performed in Dublin on Monday night as part of the Trinity College Summer Series.

Live at the Marquee organisers Aiken Promotions said they would update ticketholders with more information "as soon as possible", while apologising for the disruption.

The 38-year-old Middlesbrough-born singer rose to fame after winning The X Factor in 2012.

Earlier this year, Arthur released his sixth album, Pisces, following 2024’s chart-topping Bitter Sweet Love and an arena tour of the UK and Ireland. His music has been streamed hundreds of millions of times.

It is not yet known when the rescheduled show will take place. Ticket-holders can either request a refund or retain their tickets for the rescheduled date.

Other upcoming Live at the Marquee concerts include Natasha Bedingfield on Thursday, Belters Only on July 3, and Dec Pierce's Block Rockin' Beats on July 4.
