Sir Tom Jones has had to reschedule two concerts after coming down with a "bad case of the flu".

The 86 year old singer announced on social media that his planned performances in San Diego and Los Angeles would no longer take place as scheduled. Both shows have now been moved to November 3 and 4.

In a post on Instagram, Tom wrote: "I've enjoyed a fantastic few weeks, finishing 20 shows and performing for brilliant audiences throughout the USA, but I've unexpectedly come down with a bad case of the flu.

"After following my doctor's advice, I'm sorry to say that I have to move tonight's concert in Los Angeles and tomorrow's performance in San Diego.

"I've now been informed that the shows will take place on these new dates: The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park in San Diego on Tuesday, November 3, and The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on Wednesday, November 4."

Tom also apologised to fans for the changes and explained that anyone unable to make the new dates could request a refund for their tickets.

He added: "I'm very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. I can't wait to see you all again soon.

"Tickets purchased for the original dates will still be accepted. However, anyone who cannot attend the rescheduled shows should contact their original point of purchase to arrange a refund."

This is not the first time Tom has had to change his touring plans due to illness. In July 2025, the singer postponed a concert after developing an "upper respiratory infection".

The music legend was due to perform in Bremen, Germany, on July 22, 2025, but had to move the show to allow time for "treatment" and recovery.

The concert was subsequently rescheduled for July 28.

At the time, Tom shared a message on social media saying: "Hello to everyone in Bremen. I'm sorry to say that I have to postpone tonight's concert because I've developed an upper respiratory infection that requires treatment and rest.

"I understand how disappointing this news is and the inconvenience it will cause, and I sincerely apologise. The concert will now take place on Monday, July 28, and I'm looking forward to seeing you there. Your existing tickets will remain valid for the new date.

"Thank you for being so understanding in the meantime. Love, Tom."
