The Hollyoaks 30th anniversary tour, which was scheduled to take place later this year, has been axed.
Cast members from across various eras of the Channel 4 soap were set to take part in a number of live shows in October to celebrate three decades of the beloved Chester-based soap.
Ste Hay star Kieron Richardson, Darren Osborne legend Ashley Taylor Dawson and Tony Hutchinson icon Nick Pickard were among those set to appear on stage during the live events, which promised behind-the-scenes secrets for fans.
However, it appears that the tour won’t be happening now, with the live shows having been cancelled.
Maple Tree Entertainment, which was overseeing the tour, told The Sun: ‘Due to unforeseen circumstances, the planned theatre events for Hollyoaks: The 30th Anniversary Tour will no longer be taking place.
‘We are truly sorry to disappoint those who purchased tickets. Refunds will be issued directly by the venues.’
Metro has reached out to Maple Tree Entertainment and Hollyoaks for comment.
It is thought that Hollyoaks will be marking its 30th anniversary in other ways in October, both in-screen and off.
The big 3-0, for instance, will see the long-awaited return of Hollyoaks Later, with Warren Fox and Theresa McQueen stars Jamie Lomas and Jorgie Porter both set to stage a comeback for the late-night offering.
Talk about a treat!
What’s more, a fan will have the opportunity to appear on-screen as part of a storyline that will see one viewer ‘killed off’ by serial killer Jez.
Hollyoaks streams Mondays to Wednesdays from 6am on Channel 4’s streaming platform, or catch episodes on TV at 7pm on E4.
