Why is Aerosmith postponing several Farewell Tour Dates? Postponed dates, venues & all you need to know

Aerosmith was set to tour through North Carolina, Michigan, Ohio as well as Washington DC and Toronto, Canada in the coming weeks from September 12 to 27, 2023 as part of their Farewell Tour, which began on September 2, 2023.

However, the band has now postponed all the abovementioned dates due to a vocal injury suffered by the band's vocalist, Steven Tyler. Tyler announced the postponement via a post on the band's official Instagram page, stating:

"I’m heartbroken to say I have received strict doctor’s orders not to sing for the next thirty days. I sustained vocal cord damage during Saturday’s show that led to subsequent bleeding. We’ll need to postpone a few dates so that we can come back and give you the performance you deserve."

The dates for the coming weeks of the Aerosmith tour have been rescheduled to early next year. Tickets for the original dates will be honored on the rescheduled dates. Those who wish to avail refunds for their tickets instead can do so from the ticket vendors they purchased the tickets from.

Aerosmith tour rescheduled dates

The injury suffered by Aerosmith's vocalist and the subsequent bleeding mentioned in the postponement statement when the band performed at the Belmont Park in Long Island, New York, led to the postponement.

With Steven Tyler approaching his late seventies, Aerosmith's breadth of highly challenging and taxing vocals clearly took a toll on the singer.
