The two Texas shows are expected to be rescheduled
Carlos Santana has postponed a second show in Texas following a medical incident yesterday (Tues, Apr 22nd). The 77-year-old guitarist postponed his show at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio after falling ill during soundcheck. His manager, Michael Vrionis, stated that the incident was determined to be dehydration and the legendary guitarist was taken to a local hospital for observation. Santana has since been released but remains ill. He will not perform tonight in Sugar Land, Texas as originally intended.
“Mr. Santana has tested positive for COVID and is resting at his hotel,” Vrionis, says. “As some of you are aware, we postponed last night’s show in San Antonio. Unfortunately, out of an abundance of caution, the decision was made to also postpone this evening’s show in Sugar Land. Carlos experienced dehydration yesterday, and has since tested positive for COVID. I am happy to report that Carlos is doing well and will be back on his US Tour this Friday in Thackerville, OK. We appreciate everyone’s well wishes and concern. Carlos is looking forward to seeing you all very soon.”
Despite these recent events, Santana’s manager indicated that he plans to resume his 2025 Oneness Tour on Friday, April 25th in Thackerville, Oklahoma.
Fans are asked to hold onto their tickets for the two postponed Texas shows which will remain valid for the new dates when their announced.
This is not the first time the Mexican born American musician has had to postpone shows due to health concerns. In July 2022, he collapsed on stage during a concert in Michigan due to dehydration and heat exhaustion. In 2021, he underwent an unscheduled heart procedure, which also led to canceled performances.
Vrionis also confirms the Latin rocker will return to his long-running residency at the House of Blues Las Vegas next month, which was postponed in January after breaking a finger in a fall at his Hawaiian home.
