📣 Shannon Sharpe Delays Tour Until 2026

Shannon Sharpe and Ochocinco are putting the brakes on their highly anticipated “Nightcap” podcast tour.

During a recent episode of “Nightcap,” Shannon Sharpe addressed the change in plans:

“We’ve decided to postpone the ‘Nightcap’ tour. We look forward to seeing you guys in summer of 2026—it’s gonna be even bigger, even better. But Ochocinco and I have come to the conclusion that this is the best thing as of right now.”

Sharpe also shared a message for ticketholders:

“Some of you guys that have already got the tickets, you probably received the emails and further instructions. I want to thank you for your support—Ochocinco and I want to thank you—and everybody at ‘Nightcap’ wants to thank you, but we’ve postponed the tour until 2026 now.”

⚖️ Legal Troubles Loom Over Tour Plans

The announcement comes shortly after Shannon Sharpe was hit with a $50 million lawsuit alleging sexual assault and other serious claims.

Sharpe’s attorney has stated that he offered “at least $10 million” to settle the case.

The civil suit was filed on April 20.

While a formal legal response is either pending or already submitted, experts note that civil cases like this often stretch over months—or even years—meaning a resolution before next summer is unlikely.

🎙️ Shannon Sharpe Steps Back From ‘First Take’

However, he continues to produce content on his “Club Shay Shay” podcast and co-host “Nightcap” with Ochocinco.

❓ Were You Ready For The Tour?

Fans across the country were excited to see “Unc” and Ochocinco in person, and the tour postponement is definitely a letdown.

But under the circumstances, the decision to reschedule until 2026 may prove to be a wise one.

Here’s hoping the “Nightcap” tour returns even stronger—and with fewer distractions—next year.
