After serious consideration, it is with deep regret that Elton John will postpone a portion of upcoming North American dates on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour from March 26 through May 2, 2020, and that includes Grand Rapids and Detroit.

The May 22 thru July 8 performances remain as scheduled.

This tough decision has been made with the safety and well-being of his fans put to the fore, at a time when health services are under increased pressure and with the concern that these gatherings risk accelerating the spread of the Coronavirus [COVID-19].

The Elton John people are attempting to re-schedule the cancelled concerts.

Ticketholders of the postponed performances will receive new event information shortly and all original tickets will be honored at the rescheduled performances.

Elton looks forward to continuing to perform for his dedicated fans around the world and thanks you for your support.
