Rod Stewart abruptly pulled the plug on his One Last Time tour stop at North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre in Chula Vista yesterday, leaving thousands of fans who had already filled into the venue. Organizers told the crowd roughly 40 minutes before the planned 7:30 PM start that the show was off, and many attendees were directed to head out or return home.
Show details and opening act
As listed on Ticketmaster, the One Last Time date was set for a 7:30 p.m. start, with Richard Marx announced as the opener. The tour stop had also been promoted by Live Nation at the North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre in Chula Vista.
Promoter cites sinus infection
In a statement to The San Diego Union-Tribune, Live Nation said the concert was canceled because Stewart had a recurrence of a sinus infection. According to the outlet, the cancellation notice arrived about 40 minutes before showtime and included the word that tickets bought through Ticketmaster will be refunded automatically, while those who purchased from third-party resellers will need to seek refunds from their original point of purchase.
Stewart's recent run
Stewart, 81, had played a sold-out Hollywood Bowl show two nights earlier and ran through roughly 25 songs, according to the setlist for the June 10 performance. Britannica lists Stewart's birth year and age, while the Setlist details the Hollywood Bowl set.
Late cancellations follow recent dates
Earlier this month, Vegas weekend axed reported that two Caesars Palace dates in Las Vegas were flagged as canceled on ticketing sites, a development that complicated travel plans for fans. The run of last-minute changes has left some concertgoers frustrated and closely watching their accounts for updates.
What fans should know about refunds and resales
Per the promoter's statement to The San Diego Union-Tribune, Ticketmaster purchases will be refunded automatically to the original payment method. Buyers who used reseller platforms such as StubHub or SeatGeek are advised to contact their seller for refunds. For immediate assistance, the venue box office or Live Nation customer service can confirm the status of tickets and parking passes.
Updates will be provided if the promoter or Stewart releases further information about rescheduling or medical details. Fans should keep an eye on their ticketing accounts and the venue's official channels for confirmation.
