In a surprise announcement Friday, the "HOT TO GO!" singer announced she would be missing the festival in a move to prioritize her health.
"I apologize to people who have been waiting to see me in NYC & DC this weekend at All Things Go, but I am unable to perform. Things have gotten overwhelming over the past few weeks and I am really feeling it," she posted to her Instagram story.

"We're heartbroken to announce that Chappell Roan will no longer be performing at this year's festivals. While we know how much you were looking forward to the performances, it's important to remember that health and well-being always comes first," the festival posted on its own Instagram page.
Chappell Roan's meteoric rise to stardom over the past year, thanks to her acclaimed debut album "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess" and single "Good Luck, Babe," have lead to huge moments for her career, including appearances on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and performing at the VMAs.
She has also spoken up in recent months about the pressures of fame and the loss of personal privacy. As recently as this week, she became the center of more internet chatter over her political stances on the 2024 presidential election.
The singer posted two videos to social media this week clarifying her positions on the candidates and the war in the Middle East after interview quotes she made became internet fodder for several days.
All Things Go is a two-day musical festival taking place Sept. 28-29 in two separate locations, New York City and Columbia, Maryland. Other headlines include Reneé Rapp, Muna, Janelle Monáe, Ethel Cain, Conan Gray, Hozier and Julian Baker.
