As a result, he could not complete his tour, forcing him to postpone the remaining dates to 2021.
At the time, Elton John opened up about the delicate state of his health, and how failure to undergo surgery as soon as possible could further complicate things. Thankfully, the procedure turned out successful and he returned to his feet in no time. In fact, Elton returned to the stage sooner than anticipated, taking on his Farewell tour from early 2022 through the first half of 2023.
