King Sunny Adé and Special Guest Wunmi Forced to Cancel US and Canada tour
(Published: June 23, 2015)

We regret to report that the event King Sunny Adé and Special Guest Wunmi, which was originally scheduled for Friday, June 26 at 8pm at the 92nd Street Y, has been cancelled as a result of a worldwide computer system breakdown that has prevented U.S. Consulates from issuing visas.

As reported today in The New York Times, a computer hardware failure remains unresolved, forcing many embassies and consulates to reschedule visa appointments except for priority medical and humanitarian cases. The State Department has posted recent updates on their website.

"Due to the uncertainty surrounding this unfortunate situation, we are forced to announce the cancellation of King Sunny Ade's remaining tour dates in both the U.S. and Canada," said King Sunny Ade's tour representative.

Ticket purchases for the June 26 event are being automatically refunded. For more information about ticketing, please contact 92nd Street Y Customer Care at 212.415.5500.
