Frankie Valli, the 92-year-old frontman of the Four Seasons, has canceled all eight of his remaining 2026 concert dates, citing health concerns. The announcement came Friday on social media.

"I'm so sorry to disappoint the folks who have purchased tickets to my shows, but I have decided to take the rest of the year off from touring to focus on my health," Valli wrote.

According to the Associated Press, Valli is the only original member of the Four Seasons still performing with the group. He launched the farewell tour, billed as "The Last Encores," in October 2023. Shows originally scheduled for April of this year were moved to summer and fall dates, but all eight remaining performances have now been called off entirely. Canceled cities include Scottsdale, Arizona, and Detroit.

The Four Seasons built their reputation in the 1960s with hits that included "Sherry" and "December 1963 (Oh What a Night)." The band sold 100 million records worldwide and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. Valli also built a successful solo career and received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2026.

Despite canceling the remaining dates, Valli did not rule out performing again. "I'm looking forward to getting healthy and seeing you all again soon," he wrote at the end of his Friday message.
