Frankie Valli cancels concerts for remainder of 2026 to focus on his health

LOS ANGELES: ‘Can’t Take My Eyes Off You’ hitmaker Frankie Valli has cancelled his concerts for the remainder of 2026 to focus on his health.

In a post on social media, Valli wrote, “I’m so sorry to disappoint the folks who have purchased tickets to my shows,” he said on social media, “but I have decided to take the rest of the year off from touring to focus on my health. I’m looking forward to getting healthy and seeing you all again soon. Thank you for all your good wishes”.

Speaking to Variety, his longtime representative, Victoria Varela, said that the decision to cancel shows rather than postpone them was in consideration of fans who have already paid money and might have it held in limbo indefinitely while he works to regain his health.

“Promoters want to prolong things and not give people their money back but he needs to not keep rescheduling these shows. He realized he needed to take a break and get his health in order, and that is the true issue — he wants to get better without prolonging, through the rescheduling process, the pain of people who’ve bought these tickets,” the rep said.

She said that Valli, an inveterate performer who has rarely taken any extensive time-outs from performing, wants to devote the next six months to his health, and then consider a return to performing in 2027. (ANI)
