Billy Joel has postponed eight stadium concerts he was scheduled to do between now and July, citing an undisclosed “medical condition” and saying that his “health must come first.”
The announcement said that the singer “is expected to make a full recovery” after a recent surgery. He will be undergoing doctor-supervised physical therapy as he recovers, it said.
The next date on his tour will now be a regularly scheduled show at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh on July 5.
The rescheduled shows have been pushed back to dates that range from Nov. 15 of this year to July 3, 2026.
“While I regret postponing any shows, my health must come first,” Joel said in a statement Tuesday morning. “I look forward to getting back on stage and sharing the joy of live music with our amazing fans. Thank you for your understanding.”
Tickets will automatically be valid for the rescheduled shows, the announcement said.
Joel’s last concert before the interruption was Feb. 22 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT.
His next show was to have taken place this Saturday in Toronto, Canada. That concert will now take place one year after the scheduled date, on March 14, 2026.
The new dates, some of which are co-billed shows with Stevie Nicks or Sting, are as follows:
