Bruce Springsteen Postpones European Tour Dates Due to Vocal Issues

Rock legend Bruce Springsteen has postponed at least four shows on the E Street Band’s European tour due to “vocal issues,” reported People.

A statement shared on Springsteen’s Instagram account read, “Following yesterday’s postponement in Marseille due to vocal issues, further examination and consulting has led doctors to determine that Bruce should not perform for the next ten days.”

The statement further mentioned that the shows scheduled for May 28 and June 1 and 3 at Airport Letnany in Prague, Czech Republic, and San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy, have also been postponed.

“New dates for these shows will be announced shortly,” the note added, along with instructions for ticket holders to request refunds from their point of purchase.

“Bruce is recuperating comfortably and he and the E Street Band look forward to resuming their hugely successful European stadium tour on June 12 in Madrid at the magnificent Civitas Metropolitan,” the statement concluded.

Following the announcement, many fans expressed their concerns and well-wishes for the rock singer.

As per People, the band kicked off their 2024 European tour on May 5 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, and is expected to play through July 24, ending at Wembley Stadium in London, England. Throughout the tour, Springsteen also has stops in Barcelona, Spain; Nijmegen, Netherlands; Hannover, Germany; and Stockholm, Sweden, among other cities.

In 2023, Springsteen postponed several tour dates in September due to peptic ulcer disease. He returned to the stage in March in Phoenix, Arizona, reported People.
