From the promoter:
Since the Coronavirus has spread throughout France and around the world, we have shared and followed the advice of each government regarding the progress of this terrible disease, which, we know, has forced us to cancel the concerts we’ve been waiting for so long. We have explored the possibilities of finding alternative tour periods in Paul’s calendar, but this will not be possible due to Paul’s many ongoing engagements.
