Zayn Malik honored his late bandmate Liam Payne during the opening night of his 'Stairway to the Sky' tour on November 23, 2024, at the O2 Academy Leeds in West Yorkshire, England.

In light of the heartbreaking loss, Malik postponed the U.S. leg of his tour and rescheduled his Edinburgh shows to December.

Malik has additional concerts planned in the UK, including stops in Manchester, London, Wolverhampton, and Newcastle Upon Tyne.

The 'Stairway to the Sky' tour will conclude in the U.K. on December 9, 2024, before moving to the U.S. in early 2025.

Fans worldwide have continued to hold vigils in memory of Payne, demonstrating the profound impact he had on their lives.

Payne tragically passed away at the age of 31 in Argentina after falling from a third-floor balcony, with a post-mortem revealing multiple traumas and hemorrhages.

Argentinian prosecutors have ruled out suicide as the cause of Payne's death and have charged three individuals related to the incident.

In a heartfelt statement shared on Instagram, Malik expressed his deep sorrow over the loss, reminiscing about their bond and stating he felt he had lost a brother.

During the concert, a tribute featuring the words 'Liam Payne 1993-2024. Love you bro' was displayed on a blue screen behind Malik, who expressed his grief.

As Malik performed his song 'Stardust,' the tribute prompted emotional responses from fans, many of whom sang along while in tears.

The tribute came shortly after Malik attended Payne's funeral service on November 20, 2024, where he was seen with former One Direction bandmates.

Following Payne's death on October 16, 2024, Malik and his One Direction bandmates released a statement expressing their devastation and describing him as a beloved brother.
