Many fans from Worcester were also planning to go to Resorts World Birmingham in order to see the star perform as it's just under an hour's drive.

However, the singer has been forced to cancel several gigs across the UK on his Gloria tour due to not feeling very well.

The chart-topping singer put a statement on social media and said: "I am so sorry to let you know that my team and I are still really not well.

"So unfortunately we need to reschedule our Birmingham show to May, 27 2023. 

"It's so important to me that we give you the very best version of Gloria. 

Sam Smith’s show tomorrow at Resorts World Arena has sadly had to be rescheduled.
