UPDATE: Madonna has announced the new schedule for the North American leg of her upcoming tour, which had been delayed after she suffered a serious health scare, in the form of a bacterial infection, during the summer.
In a post to her website, the pop superstar announced that the vast majority of shows were able to be rescheduled. A handful had to be cancelled, due to scheduling difficulties and several U.S. shows – in Brooklyn, N.Y. and Los Angeles – have had a change of venue.
Tickets for the previously scheduled shows will be honored on the new dates, the singer promised, and apologized for the cancelled shows.
“Madonna regrets the inconvenience to fans and hopes to make it up to those markets in the future,” her website reads.
All five Canadian tour dates have now been rescheduled.
Now, Madonna will visit Toronto for two shows on Jan. 11 and 12, 2024, Montreal’s new tour dates will happen on Jan. 18 and 20, 2024 and Vancouver has been rescheduled for Feb. 21, 2024.

ORIGINAL STORY: Madonna will reschedule the North American leg of her upcoming world tour as a result of her recent hospitalization.
The superstar wrote in a social media post Monday that she is “on the road to recovery” but must focus on her health in order to heal.
In June, Madonna, 64, was hospitalized with a serious bacterial infection that landed her in the intensive care unit. Now, she plans to reschedule 41 concerts in the U.S. and Canada that were part of her international Celebration Tour.
“Thank you for your positive energy,” Madonna wrote, adding that she has “felt the love” from her fans.
“My first thought when I woke up in the hospital was my children,” she continued. “My second thought was that I did not want to disappoint anyone who bought tickets for my tour. I also didn’t want to let down the people who worked tirelessly with me over the last few months to create my show. I hate to disappoint anyone.”
Madonna assured her fans she will be back in the spotlight “as soon as I can!”
The Grammy-winning artist shared the statement alongside a selfie.
Live Nation separately confirmed the cancellation of Madonna’s North American tour dates. The ticket seller asked purchasers to hold onto their existing tickets, which will be valid for the new concert dates when they are announced.
It is not yet clear when Madonna will reschedule the North American performances.
The Celebration Tour will now begin in London, U.K. in October.
