Kanye West's Polish concert cancelled just weeks after he was blocked from entering the UK

US rapper Kanye West has had another concert in Europe cancelled as fury over his past comments continues to grow.

The decision comes days after the artist postponed a show in France amid anger over his past antisemitic comments, he subsequently wrote on social media that he didn't "want to put my fans in the middle of it".

"We would like to inform you that the Ye (Kanye West) concert planned for 19 June 2026 at the...Slaski stadium ‌will not take place due to formal and legal reasons," stadium director Adam Strzyzewski said in a statement posted on Facebook.

Just over a week ago, West - now known as Ye - was blocked from coming to the UK after the government concluded that his presence would "not be conducive to the public good".

The 48-year-old was due to headline all three nights of the Wireless Festival in London, but the event was cancelled after his electronic travel visa authorisation was withdrawn.

There was no immediate comment from West, who in January apologised for his behaviour, which he attributed to untreated bipolar disorder, and renounced past expressions ‌of admiration for Adolf Hitler.

Polish officials had already stated their disapproval at the prospect of him performing in their country.

Marta Cienkowska, Poland's culture minister, said on Thursday: "In a country scarred by the history of the Holocaust, we cannot pretend that this is just entertainment."

More than 1.1 ​million people, most of them Jews, were murdered at the ​Auschwitz death camp in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War ⁠Two.

On Tuesday, West announced on X that his planned concert at the Orange Velodrome in Marseille on June 11 would be postponed "until further notice".

In a follow-up post, he wrote: "I know it takes time to understand the sincerity of my commitment to make amends."

The rapper was also barred from Australia last year after releasing a song promoting Nazism and advertising swastika T-shirts on his website.

He has performed in the US and Mexico this year, with upcoming appearances in India, Turkey, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain and Portugal.

On Wednesday, West wrote on social media after the French gig was shelved, he was "looking forward to the next shows".
