Christian Nodal Hospitalized in Mexico, Postpones Concert

Christian Nodal was hospitalized in Mexico, where he was scheduled to give a concert on Wednesday (Oct. 2) at the Palenque de La Feria in Pachuca. The show will be rescheduled for Oct. 14, according to a press release.

Nodal’s publicist, Conchita Oliva, told Billboard that the Mexican star — who performed a show last weekend in Los Angeles — began to feel ill when he arrived in Mexico. As of last night, she said, Nodal remained hospitalized pending test results.

The cause of his hospitalization was not disclosed. No other details were provided.

On Nodal’s Instagram Story, this “urgent statement” was posted Tuesday night (Oct. 1):

“To all the public who purchased tickets for the event tomorrow, October 2, at the Palenque de Pachuca, Hidalgo. We inform you that due to health reasons of our artist Christian Nodal, we have the painful necessity to postpone the date of this event, rescheduling for next Monday October 14 where the tickets purchased will have the same validity. As always, we thank you for your support, love and understanding.”

Oliva also posted the statement on her Instagram Stories, in addition to a photograph of Nodal in a hospital bed with his eyes closed and a woman’s hand, presumably that of his wife Ángela Aguilar, caressing his head.

The performer of hits such as “Dime Cómo Quieres” y “Adiós Amor” has shows scheduled in the U.S. as early as Friday (Oct. 4) in Denver, Colo., followed by Sunday (Oct. 6) in Salt Lake City, Utah, and more dates in Mexico and the U.S. throughout the month. On Oct. 20, he is slated to arrive at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., and on the 26th at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.

No information was provided at this time as to whether any of these concerts will be affected.
