Sir Rod Stewart has cancelled the remaining dates of his United States tour after undergoing a routine coronary stent procedure to address narrowed heart arteries.
Medical advisors instructed the 81-year-old rock icon to take a four-week recovery period to regain full fitness following the intervention. Prior to the full tour cancellation, the singer had already postponed scheduled performances in Cincinnati and Cleveland due to what management initially categorized as an unforeseen minor medical procedure.

In a formal statement published on social media, the legendary musician expressed regret over missing the scheduled shows while confirming that his recovery is progressing smoothly under medical supervision. Management representatives noted that the singer has returned to light daily activities and remains on track for a full return to public performance once the four-week rest period concludes.
The cancelled tour segment encompassed 11 planned concert dates across North America, including a six-night residency engagement in Las Vegas. Event promoters and local venues will handle ticket refunds and scheduling communications for impacted ticket holders.
