Elton John Postpones Concert Due To Illness

Elton John, suffering from a bout of food poisoning, postponed Wednesday night’s concert at the Tucson Arena.

The Arizona Daily Star reported the show, which was nearly sold out, was rescheduled for Thursday night.

According to a spokeswoman for the Tucson Convention Center, all of the 8,800 tickets purchased for Wednesday were honored on Thursday.

“Elton apologizes for the inconvenience caused due to his illness, but doctors assure him he will be fine for tomorrow’s evening performance,” said TCC spokeswoman Kate Calhoun in a news release.

“If for any reason you are unable to attend the re-scheduled Thursday concert, July 22nd, your tickets can be refunded at point of purchase,” she said.
