Sir Elton John Won't Be Rescheduling Axed UK Tour Dates

Sir Elton John has confirmed that he won't be rescheduling the concerts he was forced to axe due to illness.

The 62-year-old pop legend cancelled shows in Liverpool, Sheffield, Newcastle and London after contracting the flu and later E.coli.

A statement from Sir Elt's promoters Marshall Arts reads: "Sadly, due to venue availability and the scale of the Red Piano show, these shows cannot be rescheduled and have now been cancelled.

"Elton has been overwhelmed by the tremendous loyalty and messages of support he has received from his fans in the UK."

Refunds on the tickets are available from the point of purchase.
