The Celtic Woman tour has been cancelled, putting paid to the York Barbican show on Saturday, September 17.

“As Celtic Woman are now confirmed to film and record their new show for television, DVD and CD release this September in the USA, their previously booked UK shows will now have to be postponed until 2012,” reads their apologetic announcement.

“We apologise most sincerely to all our UK fans and are actively working with our partner SJM Concerts to announce the rescheduled shows as soon as possible.”

Refunds are available from the Barbican box office on 0844 854 2757, Monday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm, or in person from the Paragon Street leisure centre, Monday to Friday, 10am to 2pm. Alternatively, email box@yorkbarbican.co.uk, not including bank details in the email.
