Bruce Springsteen has announced that all 2023 tour dates with the E Street Band have been postponed until 2024, citing doctors’ advice.

On Wednesday, The Boss announced on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he was postponing the tour “out of an abundance of caution” while he undergoes treatment for peptic ulcer disease.

The condition causes ulcers to form in the stomach or small intestine that can cause heartburn, nausea and stomach pain.

Springsteen, who just turned 74, was scheduled to play in Calgary on Nov. 8 and Edmonton on Nov. 6. All Canadian dates will be pushed to next year.

“Thanks to all my friends and fans for your good wishes, encouragement and support. I’m on the mend and can’t wait to see you all next year,” said Springsteen in the statement.

Rescheduled dates for each of the 2023 shows, including those postponed earlier this month, will be announced next week, said the post on X. Tickets for postponed performances will remain valid for the new dates.

Those who are unable to attend on the new date will have 30 days to request a refund.
