Rod Stewart Cancels Farewell Tour Dates After Successful Heart Procedure

Rod Stewart, 81, has canceled the remaining dates of his farewell tour after undergoing a successful coronary stent procedure.

The Grammy-winning singer is recovering well, and doctors have advised him to take four weeks off to regain full fitness before returning to the stage. His representative said Stewart has already resumed his normal daily activities and is “very much on the mend.”

Stewart apologized to fans for missing the shows, saying he was “deeply disappointed” but looked forward to performing again soon.

The health setback follows several recent disruptions. He postponed a Cincinnati concert just days ago because of an “unforeseen but minor medical procedure” and last month briefly stopped a Utah performance to use an oxygen tank after nearly fainting. He also canceled and postponed shows last year after battling the flu.

His “One Last Time Tour” was previously scheduled to conclude in Colorado in September.
