Amy Schumer's Oct. 12 appearance in Birmingham has been canceled at the Legacy Arena at the BJCC. Scheduling conflicts are to blame, according to a statement from promoter Live Nation.

Refunds will be automatically issued to those who bought tickets online or by phone using credit cards via Ticketmaster/Live Nation, according to the company's usual policy. Others must return tickets to the place of purchase for refunds.

The comedian and actress, 35, was to make a stop here as part of her world tour. Ticket prices in Birmingham ranged from $39-$109, plus service charges. The local date was the only Alabama stop listed on her tour schedule.

Schumer, known for her freewheeling and often outrageous sense of humor, is the star of "Inside Amy Schumer," a series on Comedy Central. She starred in the 2015 hit movie "Trainwreck," and is the author of a best-selling book, "The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo."
