The Biggest Coronavirus Cancellations and Postponements: 'So You Think You Can Dance' Season 17 Canceled

As concern grows over the worldwide spread of COVID-19, commonly known as the coronavirus, the entertainment and sports industries are taking proactive measures to keep themselves and their audiences safe from the virus, which can be fatal in extreme cases. On June 18, Fox announced it would be canceling its upcoming season 17 of So You Think You Can Dance.

"Production on Season 17 of So You Think You Can Dance will not be moving forward due to health and governmental restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic," a Fox rep told ET in a statement. "As a result, while we were looking forward to its return this summer, we cannot meet the standards we’ve set for viewers and contestants in light of the show’s unique format, intricate production schedule and limited time."

The news comes a week after the Los Angeles Times announced that the 2020 Coachella and Stagecoach festivals, originally postponed until October, had officially been canceled. 

After remaining closed since mid-March, Walt Disney World announced its plans on May 27 for a "phased reopening" of some of its Florida parks, with mask requirements, enhanced cleaning measures and updated health and safety protocols. Pending county and state approval, Disney plans to begin with reservation-only openings at Magic Kingdom Park and Disney’s Animal Kingdom on July 11, followed by EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios on July 15.

On May 13, the Los Angeles Times reported the the historic Hollywood Bowl would be canceling its summer season for the first time in its nearly 100-year history. The summer 2020 slate was set to include film screenings and sing-alongs, concerts from Brandi Carlile, Diana Ross, Janelle Monáe and more, and of course, performances by the Los Angeles Philharmonic.

One day prior, the Broadway League announced that all shows would remain dark through Sept. 6, effectively ending the 2019-2020 season.

Infectious disease researcher Dr. Ravina Kullar spoke with ET in early March about the threat of the virus, saying at the time that she was supportive of organizations canceling public events like festivals and conventions, especially in areas with higher concentrations of confirmed coronavirus cases. "I think that's a good idea. Until we get a handle and grasp on this virus, I think we need to take precautionary measures."
