Snow Patrol won't take the stage at the Olympia Theatre tonight. The Northern Irish band took to social media to announce that they had to cancel the show "due to illness".

"So sorry to announce, due to illness, we have to cancel tonight's show at the Olympia Theatre Dublin. Information on refunds will follow shortly. We are gutted & were so looking forward to Dublin but it's just not possible to do the show tonight. See you all soon we promise. SP.x", they write on Twitter.

Earlier this year, Snow Patrol had to cancel a number of gigs - including Glastonbury - because guitarist Johnny McDaid required neck surgery.
