At 92, Valli has to consider his health. The iconic singer announced on Instagram that he was canceling the tour.
"I'm so sorry to disappoint the folks who have purchased tickets to my shows, but I have decided to take the rest of the year off from touring to focus on my health," he wrote. "I'm looking forward to getting healthy and seeing you all again soon. Thank you for all your good wishes."
Valli has been performing on the tour since October 2023. The group extended the tour into 2026, but Valli canceled the rest of the shows instead of rescheduling them. Rep Victoria Varela confirmed that the iconic singer didn't want to leave fans stuck.
Iconic Singer Pauses Tour
"Promoters want to prolong things and not give people their money back, but he needs to not keep rescheduling these shows," Varela said.
"He realized he needed to take a break and get his health in order, and that is the true issue — he wants to get better without prolonging, through the rescheduling process, the pain of people who've bought these tickets," she added.
The news is saddening for fans. It comes after the iconic singer promised to keep performing for as long as he could. But it appears the past two years have put a strain on the singer.
"I know there has been a lot of stuff on the internet about me lately. So I wanted to clear the air. I am blessed to be 90 years old and still be doing what I love to do and as long as I am able, and audiences want to come see me, I am going to be out there performing as I always," he previously said.
"I absolutely love what I do. And I know we put on a great show because our fans are still coming out in force and the show still rocks," he added.
