\n\tIn a message posted to Instagram Stories, Summit wrote that \u201cafter much thought i have decided to take the rest of august off of touring to rest & get ready for my upcoming arena tour. i unfortunately will not be able to make it to pukkelpop, creamfields, radio 1 malta & touquet festivals. i rarely ever do this but there is so much work to do for the tour and i need to recharge my battery a bit before this fall. thanks for understanding.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Illinois native\u2019s recent tour schedule has been typically full-on, with Summit headlining Lollapalooza, playing his [UNVRS] Ibiza residency and performing a long list of festivals including Ultra Europe, Tomorrowland, Canada\u2019s Cowboy\u2019s Music Festival and more headlining events since summer began.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe arena tour referenced in Summit\u2019s statement is behind his April album CTRL ESCAPE<\/em>, which hit No. 9 on Billboard<\/em>\u2018s Top Dance Albums chart, and is set to be his biggest run to date, with the 21-date North American tour beginning Oct. 1 in Champaign, Ill. Last week, Summit added a glitzy final date to the tour, with the run now closing on Dec. 12 at the 77,500-capacity Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. This show is set to be the biggest of Summit\u2019s career thus far.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cOver the years LA has made some of the most special moments of my career,\u201d Summit\u00a0wrote\u00a0of the Memorial Coliseum show when announcing it last week. \u201cFrom the Palladium to the Shrine, then BMI Stadium to Kia Forum.. we knew we had to end the album tour on the highest note in Los Angeles.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBefore the CTRL ESCAPE tour starts, Summit has September dates in Bogot\u00e1, Colombia, S\u00e3o Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, plus his own Experts Only Festival in New York and a gig at Las Vegas\u2019 LIV Nightclub.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
