Adele announced Tuesday evening that she is postponing her “Weekends with Adele” Las Vegas residency through March to recover from an illness she did not disclose.
“I was sick at the end of the last leg and all the way through my break,” the Grammy award winner, 35, said in a statement via social media.
“I hadn’t quite gotten the chance to get back to full health before shows resumed and now I’m sick again, and unfortunately it’s all taken a toll on my voice.”
“And so on Doctors orders,” she continued, “I have no choice but to rest thoroughly. The remaining 5 weekends of this leg are being postponed to a later date. We are already working out the details and you will be sent the information asap.”

“I can’t give you what I have right now, and I’m gutted. I’m gutted, and I’m sorry it’s so last-minute.”
In July 2022, she announced the rescheduled shows and her residency officially kicked off in November.
By March 2023, the “Someone Like You” singer surprised fans by revealing she would be continuing her stay in Sin City with 34 new dates beginning in November 2023.

“I was like, ‘The show’s terrible. It’s rubbish. I’m singing terribly. I’m not funny. My dress is rubbish this week,'” she remembered.
Adele is expected to return to the stage on May 17.
She has not yet announced new dates for her postponed shows.
