The post included a heartfelt image of Timmy in a wheelchair and wearing an orthopedic boot, though he did not disclose specific details regarding the nature of his injury, leaving fans concerned.

Expressing his frustration, he remarked, “Down and out… not exactly what you want mid-summer festival season!” In his message, he emphasized his regret for having to follow medical advice that prevents him from performing this week while he undergoes necessary treatment. He remains hopeful for a quick recovery and looks forward to returning to the stage.

“I’m truly sorry to everyone who was looking forward to seeing me perform live. I absolutely detest cancelling shows and wish I could be there celebrating with you all right now,” he expressed, conveying his heartfelt emotions to the fans.

In light of this unexpected situation, Timmy Trumpet will not be performing at his scheduled event in Sables, France on July 24, nor at the renowned Open Beatz Festival in Germany on July 25 and Tomorrowland in Belgium on July 27, events that fans eagerly anticipated.
