Rod Stewart was forced to cancel his concert at Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati on 9 August due to a health issue. The venue announced the postponement on social media just hours before showtime, citing an unforeseen but minor medical procedure that required prompt attention.
Rescheduling and Ticket Information
The venue confirmed that rescheduling is underway, with more details to follow on Tuesday. All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new date. Stewart is expected to make a quick recovery and looks forward to returning to Cincinnati.
Fan Support
Fans quickly rallied to offer their support on Instagram. One wrote, "Sadly, Rod, like the rest of us, is not forever young. I hope that he can recover and rebound to hit the tour again." Another added, "Hope Rod feels better soon. Take care of yourself first. Your true fans will be there for you always." A third commented, "Oh no! ! Prayers for Rod."
Family Joy
The health scare follows happy family news, as Stewart recently welcomed his sixth grandchild. His daughter Ruby gave birth to a second son, Levi Rhodes Kalick, with her fiancé Jake Kalick. Ruby, 39, and Jake already share a three-year-old son named Otis.
Ruby announced the birth on Instagram, writing: "We welcomed our little (big) Levi Rhodes Kalick at 6:58pm on 8/4/26 at 9lbs 20inches.... His name Levi means My Heart and his arrival has grown our hearts to 10 times the size... Seeing Otis and Levi meet for the first time might have been the greatest experience of my life so far.. Otis is already the best big brother and we are already so in love with this sweet boy... Welcome sweet Levi!"
