Fans in Bremen were heartbroken last night as legendary singer Sir Tom Jones, 84, was forced to postpone his concert scheduled for July 22, 2025, due to a sudden upper respiratory infection. The unexpected announcement was made just hours before showtime, directly from Tom’s official social media account.
“Hello to all the fans in Bremen,” the message began. “Unfortunately, I must postpone my show this evening, as I’ve contracted an upper respiratory infection that needs treatment and rest. I know this is really disappointing and will cause inconvenience to you all, and I’m very sorry about that.”
Though the news came as a disappointment, many fans expressed sympathy and understanding for the beloved Welsh icon, whose powerful voice has remained a marvel even into his 80s. Over the past decade, Tom Jones has battled through personal loss and health struggles, but his resilience and commitment to performing have earned him admiration from fans worldwide.
The statement also included a glimmer of hope:
“The show will now go ahead on Monday 28th July, so I look forward to seeing you then. All tickets will remain valid for the re-scheduled date.”
This isn’t the first time Tom has had to reschedule a performance due to health concerns. But fans have long admired his transparency, honesty, and dedication, with many taking to social media to wish him a speedy recovery.
The show in Bremen is part of his ongoing “Ages & Stages” tour, a celebration of his six-decade career that includes stops across Europe this summer.
For now, fans are being urged to hold onto their tickets and prepare for what promises to be a spectacular return on July 28.
As one fan commented:
“Take all the time you need, Tom. Your health comes first. We’ll be here when you’re ready.”
