Despite injury, Ayliva impressed with an emotional performance in Dortmund. Find out more about the adjusted shows, reactions and newly available tickets now.
Ayliva’s health had deteriorated at the end of her German tour, so concert cancellations had to follow. The last shows in Dortmund as well as the catch-up dates for the Hanover performances that were canceled at short notice therefore took place under adapted conditions. Here are more details about the gigs taking place on October 28th and 29th. The next concert in Dortmund will take place on October 31st, Halloween.

Problem: An infected bee sting
The artist announced on Instagram before the Dortmund shows: “All choreographies will be adapted to my current health situation.” However, there should be no reductions in the show due to her injury – according to her own statements, the setlist will remain unchanged. The reason for the cancellations and adjustments was a bee sting that became infected and made it impossible for her to walk, as the singer explained in an Instagram story.
What were the first two modified shows like?
According to fan statements, the injury led to adjustments, but not to a loss of quality in the performance – neither vocally nor performatively. Footage of visitors to the Dortmund concerts shared on social media showed that the musician had to be supported and sometimes even carried by her dancers or crew members during her stage show.
Ayliva spent most of the concerts sitting – on a lighted staircase, a kind of bar stool or a bench decorated with ivy with seat cushions. She hid her injury, including the bandage, under white, partly transparent, glittering cuffs.

In an Instagram story about the show on October 29th, the performer showed a clip from the rehearsal. In it, she thanked her choreographer and all the dancers by name for the adjustments during the current tour and the quick implementation by marking them. Another story shows the result during the show of one of the few excerpts of the concert that she spends standing up – recorded by the choreographer, with congratulations to Ayliva and her team for the good performance.

After the first two performances with Handicap, the artist received a lot of support from fans and her crew on social media.
Latest shows and tickets
Due to the previously uncertain situation, tickets are available again for the originally sold out Halloween show and for the rescheduled dates of the Hanover performances. Tickets that have already been purchased remain valid. However, there are no replacement dates for the canceled gigs in Stuttgart, as “there were no free dates in the hall calendar,” as the singer announced via Instagram – something that she very much regrets.
Ayliva is supported by crew member:
There is still some time until Ayliva’s tour ends on Thursday, November 6, 2025 – and hopefully the artist can perform a little more carefree again by then.
