Garron Noone has announced he’s made the ‘difficult decision’ to cancel all of his remaining tour dates for the year.

The Irish musician, comedian and TikTok star rose to fame during the pandemic when he started posting videos on social media and sharing tutorials on creating dance music and music production before posting comedy clips.

In the space of a year, he went from having a few thousand followers to now boasting 2.1 million TikTok followers, and the same amount on Instagram.

He is best known for his catchphrase: ‘Follow me, I’m delicious.’ He then used it as the title of his podcast.

However, this week Garron announced he’d had to scrap his upcoming tour dates.

Posting across his social media channels, he explained: ‘After a lot of thought, I’m very sad to have to make the difficult decision to reschedule all of my gigs for this year.

‘Many of you will be aware of some of the issues I’ve dealt with in the past and unfortunately, over the last few months I have been dealing with a lot of these issues again. It has gotten to a point where I really need to put all my energy into getting back on track.

‘I’m disappointed that l’m not going to be able to see you all, but, hopefully I will see you in 2026 for the rescheduled shows.’

The 30-year-old continued: ‘I’m very sorry to everyone that was coming see me.

‘I understand many of you will have made arrangements to be at the gigs. If it was possible I would love to do them, but I have to accept that it isn’t possible at this time.

‘Thank you to everyone for all their support over the last couple of years, my break from making videos will also likely be a bit longer than I had first hoped, but I look forward to chatting to you all again soon!’

He concluded his post writing: ‘Hopefully it won’t be too long after that until l’m back. Until I see ye again. Stay Delicious.’

He followed that up with another post, in which he explained: ‘Many of you will be aware of some of the issues I’ve dealt with in the past and unfortunately, over the last few months I have been dealing with a lot of these issues again.

‘It has gotten to a point where I really need to put all my energy into getting back on track.’

He added he was ‘disappointed’ not to see fans but had plans to reschedule his shows for 2026, with all tickets remaining valid.

‘I’m very sorry to everyone that was coming to see me, I understand many of you will have made arrangements to be at the gigs. If it was possible I would love to do them, but I have to accept that it isn’t possible at this time,’ he said.

‘Thank you to everyone for all their support over the last couple of years, my break from making videos will also likely be a bit longer than I had first hoped, but I look forward to chatting to you all again soon!’

Garron was next due to play in Killarney on Saturday, with other shows planned for Mayo, Dublin, Kerry and Belfast. He was also set to perform gigs in New York and Boston, as well as the Milwaukee Irish Fest and Chicago’s Gaelic Park Irish Fest.

Earlier this year he faced backlash when posting a video online in which he said there was ‘an immigration issue in Ireland’.

Soon after he deactivated his accounts for a brief period, explaining he also ‘lost a lot of sponsors’ and didn’t leave his house for a week.

A few months later announced he would be taking a break from social media.

Garron has previously spoken about his struggles with agoraphobia.

‘Eventually got to the point where I couldn’t leave the house without having a panic attack. I spent about five years completely housebound, having panic attacks every day,’ he said on The Late Late Show last year.
