"A No No" was included as the opening track in the setlist for the Caution World Tour (2019). Carey also performed the song as part of a medley, including "Always Be My Baby" (1995), "Emotions" (1991), "We Belong Together" (2005) and "Hero" (1993), at the 2019 "Billboard" Music Awards where she received the Icon Award. "Rolling Stone"s Althea Legaspi and Daniel Kreps wrote that she "seemed to battle monitor and pitch issues at times", but "still showcased her astounding range during the elegant set, which featured backing from tux-clad dancers, gospel singers and an orchestra".
