Snoop Dogg has announced he will be scrapping all the international dates from his 2022 tour due to “unforeseen scheduling conflicts”.
The rapper took to Instagram to reveal he’s “canceling all upcoming non-U.S. tour dates” for the remainder of 2022.
“Family obligations and upcoming tv and film projects” would be among the reasons.

This means his gig at the OVO Hydro will also be cancelled.
The show was originally scheduled to take place on March 2, 2022, and had been postponed to August 26, 2022.
In a statement, he referred to Covid as a reason for the change in date: “My biggest priority is to keep my team and my fans safe, due to ongoing issues with the pandemic we have to push back again to make sure we can go to every country on the tour in a safe way.”
The rapper had been booked to perform concerts at venues across the UK and Europe in August and September this year, in support of his 17th album I Wanna Thank Me, and documentary of the same name.
He had recently announced he would be visiting Glasgow if Celtic won the championship.
He had said: "My Bhoys are not there yet but after their win against Rangers, they are getting close to winning the championship.
“Snoop hasn’t booked his ticket just yet but the passport is out of the safe.
“As soon as they are champions, you better believe I am on that flight to Glasgow.
“The night is going to go off and whatever they want to do, it’s all going to be on Snoop.
“The champagne is going to be out and we are going to get it poppin’.
“For real, I love Indian food and always get the best curry in the UK.
"So if there are any good Indian restaurants in Glasgow, we can start the night there and I will hire out the whole place.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
