Rod Stewart Abruptly Cancels Las Vegas Show on ‘Doctor’s Advice’ Before Performance Time

A representative said the singer will return June 2 after canceling two performances at Caesars Palace on medical advice.

  • On medical advice, 81-year-old singer Rod Stewart canceled his May 29 and 30 performances at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas due to a sinus infection, with shows resuming on June 2.
  • These canceled dates were part of Stewart's 'The Encore Shows' residency, which runs through June 6; the veteran performer has repeatedly insisted he has no plans to retire from live performance.
  • Ticketmaster notified fans of the sudden cancellation shortly before showtime, with some receiving notice less than two hours before the 7:30pm start; the Event Organizer confirmed refunds are being offered.
  • Stewart apologized in a statement to his 'family of fans,' explaining he is on vocal rest while recovering from the infection; he expressed optimism about returning to Caesars Palace for future shows.
  • While Stewart remains one of Britain's most successful recording artists with over six decades in music, he has shifted focus from large-scale world tours to maintaining his long-running Las Vegas residency.
