Celine Dion Cancels Remaining North American Tour Dates Due to Recent Health Issue – “Severe and Persistent Muscle Spasms”

 

Singer, songwriter Celine Dion, 53, canceled the remaining shows of the North American leg of her “Courage World Tour” due to a recent health issue.

According to a press release, Celine Dion has been experiencing “severe and persistent muscle spasms” that prevent her from performing.

Celine Dion today announced that as her recovery from a recent health issue continues, she unfortunately must cancel the remaining shows of the North American leg of her “Courage World Tour” previously rescheduled for March 9 – April 22, 2022. Celine had completed the first 52 shows on the tour before the pandemic emerged in March 2020, but recently has been treated for severe and persistent muscle spasms which are preventing her from performing, and her recovery is taking longer than she hoped. Her medical team continues to evaluate and treat the condition.

“I was really hoping that I’d be good to go by now, but I suppose I just have to be more patient and follow the regimen that my doctors are prescribing,” Celine Dion said in a statement. 

“There’s a lot of organizing and preparation that goes into our shows, and so we have to make decisions today which will affect the plans two months down the road. I’ll be so glad to get back to full health, as well as all of us getting past this pandemic, and I can’t wait to be back on stage again. Meanwhile, I’ve been very touched by all the words of encouragement that everyone’s been sending to me on social media. I feel your love and support and it means the world to me,” she added.

“Tickets purchased with a credit card through authorized ticketing outlets will be refunded automatically to the credit card used for purchase.” Dion’s team said.
