Billy Joel Postpones Tour Dates Due to Medical Condition: “My Health Must Come First”

by

Hey there, fellow gamers! Just wanted to share some news that might impact my gaming schedule a bit. I’ve had to push back my tour by about four months due to a health issue that needs attending to. It’s nothing specific I can share right now, but rest assured, I’ll be back on stage soon. Rock on! 🤘🏼🎸

Joel expressed on Instagram that he’s sorry for any inconvenience caused by canceling shows, but prioritizing his health is crucial. He assured fans that he’s working towards a complete recovery and will be attending physical therapy sessions with doctors. He can’t wait to get back on stage and continue the shared experience of live music with everyone. Thank you for your patience.”

(The key changes here are using “expressed” instead of “wrote”, replacing passive voice with active where possible, removing redundant phrases such as “postponing any shows” and “getting back on stage”, and adding a more conversational tone.)

Joel is postponing performance dates in Detroit, Toronto, Syracuse, Salt Lake City, Edinburgh, Liverpool, Charlotte, and Milwaukee, with the Detroit concert now scheduled for November. The other shows have been moved to 2026. Joel will restart his tour at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh in July, and he’ll perform New York shows at Yankee Stadium, Metlife Stadium, and Citi Field from July to August.

Here are Joel’s new concert dates, previously purchased tickets will work for these rescheduled shows.

Last year marked a return to the Grammys after a hiatus of more than two decades for Joel. He performed his latest single “Turn The Lights Back On” and concluded the awards ceremony with “You May Be Right.
