Miranda Lambert unable to perform July 9 show

July 7, 2015 Calgary – Regretfully, Miranda Lambert will not be able to perform her Scotiabank Saddledome concert scheduled for Thursday July 9, 2015 and will be rescheduling to return at a later date yet to be determined.

Miranda Lambert is unable to perform due to serious inflammation of her vocal chords according to her physician. “I’m so sorry that I can’t be at Stampede this week, but I’ll be back in Calgary just as soon as I can for all of my Stampede fans.” said Lambert.

“We understand that this news is disappointing for fans,” says Paul Rosenberg, Chief Operating Officer. “We will know more about rescheduling the concert later; in the meantime, we hope that fans use their tickets for admission to Stampede and enjoy all that we have to offer- including live country music at Nashville North.”

Ticket holders should hold on to their tickets, as each concert ticket will be valid for free single admission to Stampede Park between July 8 and July 12.

Ticket holders should retain their ticket for the rescheduled concert, and should continue to check the Stampede’s and Ticketmaster’s websites for rescheduling updates.
