LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — The iconic music legend Dolly Parton has announced a delay in her Las Vegas concert dates due to “health challenges,” as she revealed on Sunday.
Parton, 79, announced her much-anticipated return to the Las Vegas Strip with “Dolly: Live in Las Vegas,” a six-night concert series initially scheduled for December at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. This would have marked Parton’s first long-term Vegas engagement in 32 years.
In a Sunday afternoon social media update, Parton mentioned encountering some health issues, with her doctors advising a few medical procedures.
Parton released a statement that read:
“I want my fans and the public to hear from me directly that I am, unfortunately, postponing my upcoming Las Vegas concerts. As many of you know, I’ve been facing some health challenges, and my doctors recommend that I undergo a few procedures. As I jokingly told them, it’s time for my 100,000-mile check-up, albeit not the usual trip to my plastic surgeon! All jokes aside, this means I can’t rehearse and assemble the show as I want you to experience, and as you deserve. You pay good money to see me perform, and I strive to be at my best for you. While I’ll be working on my projects from Nashville, I need a bit of time to get show ready, as they say. Rest assured, I’m not quitting the business—God hasn’t mentioned stopping yet! However, I believe I’m being told to slow down for now, so I can gear up for more exciting adventures with all of you. I appreciate your love and understanding.”
The postponed show dates have been moved to the following dates;
- Thursday, Dec. 4, 2025, to Thursday, Sept. 17, 2026
