In a statement, Future Music Festival announced, “It is with great regret that Future Entertainment and Mellen Events announce Rita Ora will be unable to perform at Future Music Festival in Perth today due to a throat infection.

“She has been ordered to bed rest for the next 24 – 48 hours and is expected to continue all up coming shows as scheduled.

“Rita Ora wishes to extend an apology to her fans who were eagerly anticipating her Perth performance”.
