Seventy-four-year-old Bruce Springsteen has canceled all of the remaining tour dates left with the E Street Band as he continues his recovery from peptic ulcer disease.
The news was shared in an official statement on social media :
It reads: “Bruce Springsteen has continued to recover steadily from peptic ulcer disease over the past few weeks and will continue treatment through the rest of the year on doctor’s advice. With this in mind, and out of an abundance of caution, all remaining 2023 tour dates for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band will be postponed until 2024. Rescheduled dates for each of the 2023 shows, including those postponed earlier this month, will be announced next week, all taking place at their originally scheduled venues. When the new 2024 dates are announced, those unable to attend on the new date who purchased their tickets through official ticketing companies have 30 days to request a refund. All tickets for postponed performances will remain valid for the newly announced dates.”

Springsteen said: “Thanks to all my friends and fans for your good wishes, encouragement, and support. I’m on the mend and can’t wait to see you all next year.”
According to the Mediclinicinfohub a peptic ulcer is a sore in the lining of the stomach (gastric ulcer), duodenum (duodenal ulcer), or oesophagus that develops when the lining is damaged. The acid and enzymes (pepsin) secreted by the stomach cells eat away at the wall of the stomach or upper small intestine, forming an ulcer.
