North West cancels first headlining tour, appears on Dazed cover

North West confirmed that her planned first headlining run was canceled days before its scheduled opening, with listings for all 14 dates removed from ticketing platforms and the tour page taken offline.

The Kimokawaii tour with rapper Molly Santana had been due to begin August 5 at the House of Blues in Dallas and run through August 27 in Los Angeles, but Ticketmaster and AXS showed multiple dates marked as canceled, and North posted on Instagram Stories that “it isn’t happening anymore,” according to reporting by AOL.

Ticketing notices said refunds would be issued automatically to the original payment method, with Ticketmaster advising customers refunds could take 14 to 21 days to appear after the organizer provides funds, AOL reported.

Alongside the cancellation coverage, North West also appears as the cover star of Dazed magazine’s Autumn 2026 “New Idols” issue. Promotional posts and coverage credit filmmaker Gus Van Sant as the photographer and show images of North in turquoise-blue hair and edgy styling, per Yahoo Entertainment.

The Dazed feature was previewed on social media by Kim Kardashian and by Dazed itself; Yahoo says the issue is scheduled to go on sale internationally on Sept. 10 and credits the creative team behind the shoot.

North released her debut EP, N0rth4evr, in May and had promoted the tour after announcing it in June, according to AOL, which also noted Molly Santana issued an apology to fans and promised to make up for the canceled dates.
