Cody Johnson Cancels Remaining 2025 Shows

Cody Johnson is canceling his remaining 2025 shows due to a burst eardrum, which the country singer said will require surgery and “many weeks” of recovery. He was expected to perform six upcoming dates through December, with his next performance originally scheduled for Oct. 18 at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, and the final 2025 date in Las Vegas at T-Mobile Arena on Dec. 5.

“It is with a very heavy heart I have to share the remainder of this year’s concert performances will not be able to happen. While battling a severe upper respiratory and sinus infection, I burst my ear drum. The severity of the rupture means I must undergo immediate surgery,” he wrote in an Instagram post.

He said that it will take “many weeks” for him to heal following the medical procedure. “It is not possible for me to sing during this time,” he added.

“Without the surgery my downtime could be months. I pray for full healing so I can get well and return to doing what I love,” he concluded, giving a shout-out to his fans. “Thank you COJO Nation for the love and support, now, and always.”

Johnson advised ticket holders to “Please stay tuned for an email from your ticket providers for further details.”

The news follows a recent Instagram post the singer shared from inside a recording studio. “Been working on something for y’all…” he captioned the black-and-white photo, hinting that new music was being tracked.

Last fall, he told Rolling Stone about his approach to touring. “I take a very athletic standpoint toward my tours. You always want to outdo the last one, and outdo the last one after that,” he said. “But there have been so many big, significant things that have happened for us this year that it is clear the wave is starting to roll,” he says. “Now, we’ve gotta stay ahead of the wave.”

For now, he’ll be off the road through the end of the year. Currently, he has concerts planned through July 2026 according to his website, including a Stagecoach headlining appearance in April.
