The Pussycat Dolls have sacked their upcoming U.S. tour, becoming the latest act to experience trouble on the summer concert circuit.
The tour was due to hit Pine Knob July 1. The concert’s Ticketmaster listing now lists the event as canceled, and ticket holders will be refunded in 14-21 days, according to a message on the page.
“After taking an honest look at the North American run, we’ve made the difficult and heartbreaking decision to cancel all but one of the North American dates,” the group wrote in a message posted to social media on Monday.
The group’s June 6 concert at WeHo Pride in Los Angeles remains, as do the group’s UK and European dates.
Several upcoming tours have reshaped or scaled back their runs in recent weeks. Former One Direction singer Zayn recently canceled his entire U.S. run of shows, as did Meghan Trainor, who was due to kick off her 2026 tour June 12 at Pine Knob.
In addition, Post Malone and Jelly Roll recently postponed the launch of their joint “Big Ass Stadium Tour” — the outing visited Ford Field in May 2025 — and axed a number of shows on the front end of the tour.
The Pussycat Dolls show was reportedly suffering from low ticket sales and had been earmarked for cancellation by several concert industry watchers.
The 33-date North American tour was set to kick off June 5 in Palm Desert, California, and wrap up Aug. 1 in Dallas. The Dolls — Nicole Scherzinger with Kimberly Wyatt and Ashley Roberts — were also due to play Grand Rapids’ Acrisure Amphitheater on June 30.
Lil’ Kim and Mya were set to open the shows, which were scheduled to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the group’s debut album, “PCD.”
