Billie Eilish‘s gig in Mexico City this week was cancelled at the last minute due to bad weather – watch her play a short acoustic set instead below.
The singer was set to play the Foro Sol venue on Wednesday night (March 29) but the show was unable to take place due to heavy rain and wind.
After fans were alerted to the last-minute cancellation, Eilish and brother Finneas came out on stage to perform six tracks acoustically. During the set, she played hits ‘Ocean Eyes’, ‘When The Party’s Over’ and the title track to second album ‘Happier Than Ever’.
“That was truly really special for me, I love you so much,” she told fans who stayed to watch the impromptu show.
See footage from Wednesday’s acoustic gig below. The full Mexico City show has been rescheduled for tonight (March 30).

Elsewhere, Billie Eilish was announced this week as one of the headliners for Lollapalooza 2023, alongside Kendrick Lamar and The 1975.
Lollapalooza 2023 is returning to Giant Park in Chicago, Illinois from August 3-6. Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lana Del Rey, Odesza, Tomorrow X Together and Karol G will also be topping the bill, with the latter making history as the first female Latin artist to headline the festival.
The festival has also booked the likes of Carly Rae Jepsen, Rina Sawayama, Pusha T, Lil Yachty, 30 Seconds To Mars, Beebadoobee and Fred again.. They will be joined by Sabrina Carpenter, Gorgon City, Alex G, Diplo, Joey Bada$$, NewJeans and Maggie Rogers.
March also saw the arrival of Eilish’s first acting role in Donald Glover‘s Swarm. The Amazon Prime Video series follows a young woman named Dre, whose obsession with one of the world’s biggest pop stars – as well as an unexpected trauma involving her sister, Marissa (Chloe Bailey) – sets her on a dark journey across the country.
As Dre continues on her increasingly violent path, she encounters characters played by Damson Idris (Marissa’s boyfriend, Khalid) as well as Byron Bowers, Kiersey Clemons, Paris Jackson, internet personality Rickey Thompson, Rory Culkin and American Auto breakout X Mayo.
Though Eilish has appeared in several music documentaries and voiced a version of herself for The Simpsons’ short, ‘When Billie Met Lisa’, Swarm is the singer’s first fully scripted role as an actor.
