Overview

  • Stewart canceled his June 5 performance at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace following an earlier postponement of his June 1 date, which has been rescheduled to June 10.
  • His latest cancellations result from a flu diagnosis that follows earlier bouts of strep throat, COVID-19 and mandated vocal rest during his One Last Time tour.
  • The current world tour marks his final large-scale touring effort, though Stewart says he has no plans to retire fully.
  • He plans a mini-reunion with Faces co-founder Ronnie Wood for his Sunday afternoon legends slot set at Glastonbury on June 29.
  • Beyond the tour’s conclusion, Stewart has expressed interest in a more intimate Great American Songbook showcase in smaller venues.
