Dolly Parton‘s upcoming concert residency in Las Vegas has been postponed. The country icon is undergoing “a few” undisclosed medical procedures to address health concerns, she revealed on Sunday (Sept. 28).

In a statement posted on her social media accounts, Parton explained that she won’t have sufficient rehearsal time ahead of the shows that were scheduled for The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in early December. She announced rescheduled dates set for September 2026.

“I want the fans and public to hear directly from me that, unfortunately, I will need to postpone my upcoming Las Vegas concerts,” Parton wrote. “As many of you know, I have been dealing with some health challenges, and my doctors tell me that I must have a few procedures. As I joked with them, it must be time for my 100,000-mile check-up, although it’s not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon!”

Her message continued, “In all seriousness, given this, I am not going to be able to rehearse and put together the show that I want you to see, and the show that you deserve to see. You pay good money to see me perform, and I want to be at my best for you. While I’ll still be able to work on all of my projects from here in Nashville, I just need a little time to get show ready, as they say. And don’t worry about me quitting’ the business because God hasn’t said anything about stopping yet. But, I believe He is telling me to slow down right now so I can be ready for more big adventures with all of you. I love you and thank you for understanding.”

Parton was set to perform in Vegas on Dec. 4, 6, 7, 10, 12 and 13. She planned to weave “seven decades of classic hits and fan favorites including ‘9 to 5,’ ‘Jolene,’ ‘I Will Always Love You’ and ‘Coat of Many Colors’” into the limited engagement run at The Colosseum, for which tickets went on sale in June.

The six-show run has been rescheduled for 2026 on the following dates: Sept. 17, 19, 20, 23, 25 and 26.

Original tickets are valid for the new dates, and refunds will be available. Parton and The Colosseum at Caesars Palace said more instructions will be provided to ticket purchasers via email.

The concert residency is Parton’s first extended run in Las Vegas since a short engagement in the early ’90s — at the then-new, but now-closed, Mirage Hotel, where she performed alongside Kenny Rogers.
