In a statement, it said: “Live Nation regret to announce that, due to circumstances beyond our control, the PET SHOP BOYS Bangkok show on Thursday 4 April 2019 is cancelled.
“Neil and Chris are very disappointed and apologise to their fans for any disappointment and inconvenience caused.”
Representatives for the band have been contacted for further information.
The Pet Shop Boys have further tour dates in Southeast Asia, including stops in Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan.
It is not thought any of these are affected.
