Macauley Culkin’s trip to Australia has officially been called off.
In a statement given to Variety Australia today, the actor’s camp cited scheduling conflicts as the reason behind the move.
“Due to a scheduling conflict, A Nostalgic Night with Macaulay Culkin following a screening of ‘Home Alone’ has been cancelled. Refunds will be automatically issued at the point of purchase,” it reads. “We apologise for any inconvenience.”
The ‘Home Alone’ screenings were scheduled to go ahead in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney, where Culkin would have participated in a live moderated interview following the film and share behind-the-scenes stories and his favourite moments from the holiday classic.
The tour announcement came just one day after Culkin appeared at the 2026 Emmys to honour the late Catherine O’Hara, who famously played Kevin McCallister’s mother in the ‘Home Alone’ films.
“You remember her as the forgetful mother, right?” Culkin said. “There are all kinds of words I could use to describe Catherine. She was encouraging. She was warm. She was funny, but the word that I think of is mum … She was, she was my mum. She was our mum … So she may have forgotten me twice. But we will always remember her.”
