Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band postpone remainder of 2023 tour
"I'm on the mend and can't wait to see you all next year," Springsteen said.
Bruce Springsteen is postponing the remainder of his 2023 tour with the E Street Band until 2024.
The singer, who was treated for symptoms of peptic ulcer disease earlier this month, said Wednesday that he is now "on the mend," but will need to continue treatment for the remainder of the year.
"Bruce Springsteen has continued to recover steadily from peptic ulcer disease over the past few weeks and will continue treatment through the rest of the year on doctor's advice," a statement shared on Springsteen's Instagram page read. "With this in mind, and out of an abundance of caution, all remaining 2023 tour dates for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be postponed until 2024."
Springsteen was originally supposed to resume touring Nov. 2 in Vancouver, after postponing shows in September, with a final two-night run in San Francisco, Dec. 10 and 12.
Fans can expect an announcement regarding all rescheduled dates next week, with the post noting the shows will all be at the same venues as originally planned.
Tickets purchased for the original shows will be valid for the rescheduled dates. Anyone unable to attend the new shows will have 30 days to request refunds once the new dates are announced.
"Thanks to all my friends and fans for your good wishes, encouragement, and support," Springsteen shared in Wednesday's statement. "Can't wait to see you all next year."
