Bruce Springsteen Postpones Four European Concerts Due to Vocal Issues

In addition to the Marseille gig, the impacted concerts include a May 28 show in Prague and a pair of dates, June 1 and 3, at Milan’s San Siro Stadium. Following the Milan concerts, Springsteen and the E Street Band had a prescheduled week-long break between shows, which will hopefully provide enough time for the singer to recuperate until the tour resumes on June 12 in Madrid.

“New dates for these shows will be announced shortly,” the statement continued. “Those wishing a refund will be able to obtain it at their original 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.”

It’s been a rough road since Springsteen and the E Street Band embarked on their tour back in February 2023, with Covid sidelining members of the band from performances early on. In September 2023, the trek hit the brakes completely and all remaining shows were postponed until 2024 as Springsteen battled peptic ulcer disease. However, the 2024 leg went off incident- and ailment-free until this week’s postponement due to “vocal issues.”
