Rising star Cat Burns has made the difficult decision to postpone her highly anticipated “How To Be Human” tour until April 2026. The announcement comes as the singer-songwriter navigates an unexpectedly intense period leading up to the tour’s launch.
Burns, currently captivating audiences as a contestant on “Celebrity Traitors,” shared the news with her fans, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing her wellbeing. The original tour was slated to begin November 10th in Glasgow, with stops across the UK including Manchester, Brighton, and culminating in London.
“This album and tour mean the world to me,” Burns explained, acknowledging the significant journey of preparing to share her music live. She revealed the build-up has been far more demanding than anticipated, prompting a collaborative decision with her team to reschedule.
Touring presents unique challenges, both mentally and physically, and Burns is determined to ensure she’s in the best possible condition to deliver a truly memorable experience for her audience. She wants to feel fully present and energized on stage.
Existing tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled April 2026 dates. Unfortunately, the Wolverhampton show could not be moved, and refunds are being offered. As a replacement, a brand new show has been added in Birmingham.
In a more personal revelation, Burns explained that her autism and ADHD play a significant role in her need for this time. The demands of a public-facing career, with constant interaction and stimulation, require careful management of her mental health.
She stressed the importance of recharging and resetting, ensuring she can dedicate herself fully to the tour and provide fans with a performance that feels truly worthwhile. This isn’t about cancelling a dream, but safeguarding the ability to realize it fully.
Burns expressed deep gratitude for the patience, kindness, and understanding of her fans, acknowledging that such decisions are never easy. She eagerly anticipates sharing the “How To Be Human” experience with them when the time is right.
Record store appearances will continue as planned, offering fans immediate opportunities to connect with the artist. Burns is committed to delivering the shows she envisioned, and this postponement is a crucial step in achieving that goal.
