Elton John forced to postpone remainder of North American tour

Sir Elton John has been forced to reschedule the remainder of the North American leg on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour today [April 23] due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

The postponed shows were initially set to run between May 22 and July 8, and he had previously postponed a five-week leg of North America that was supposed to begin March 22.

A statement has now been issued on the star's social media pages saying: "This tough decision has been made with the continued safety and well-being of his fans at a time when health services are under increased pressure and with the concern that these gatherings continue to risk accelerating the spread of the coronavirus [COVID-19]".
