Rod Stewart, Recovering From COVID, Postpones Pair of Concerts This Weekend

Rod Stewart has tested positive for COVID-19, leading to the cancelation of two summer concerts that were originally scheduled for Aug. 9-10.
“We regret to announce that tonight’s Rod Stewart concert in Stateline, NV and his August 10 show in Lincoln, CA have been postponed, as the singer recovers from a summer strain of Covid-19,” a statement posted on Stewart’s Instagram account said on Friday night (Aug. 9), hours before he was expected to take the stage.
The shows have already been rescheduled, his team announced on the same update. Stewart, 79, is set to perform at Thunder Valley Casino in Lincoln, California, on Aug. 18; two days later he’ll take the stage at Lake Tahoe Outdoor Arena at Harveys in Stateline, Nevada, on Aug. 20.
It’s also been shared that “ticket holders should hold on to their tickets as they will be honored for the rescheduled shows.”
Stewart’s illness follows the singer missing the 200th show of his long-running Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace on Wednesday, when he cited strep throat as the reason for his absence. At the time, he noted on Instagram, “Most people can work with strep throat but obviously not me. I’m absolutely gutted. I’ve been looking forward to this concert for so long. My deepest regrets for any inconvenience this has caused.”
Those who missed out on his Vegas run will get another chance to catch the star at Caesars Palace in 2025, at encore dates of his residency show during select weekends in March, May and June of next year.
“Vegas, I’m having too much fun for this to end so we are coming back for an encore! Don’t miss The Encore Shows Las Vegas Residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace March 12-22 & May 29-June 8!” Stewart wrote to fans on Aug. 7. Tickets for Stewart’s 2024 concert dates will go on sale Monday (Aug. 12) at 10 a.m. PT; ticket details for the residency dates are available here.
