Vasilis Papakonstantinou cancels remaining summer tour due to pneumonia
Renowned Greek singer Vasilis Papakonstantinou announced on August 20, 2026, the cancellation of his remaining summer tour performances. The decision follows a prolonged struggle with persistent pneumonia, which has hindered his ability to continue his schedule. The tour was originally intended to conclude on September 12, 2026, at the Lycabettus Theatre.
Among the cancelled appearances is a concert previously scheduled for September 4 in Cyprus. The Doxa Defteras association, responsible for the event, confirmed the cancellation and stated that they have begun providing instructions for ticket refunds to the public. The artist expressed his disappointment in a social media statement but promised his fans that he would return to live performances in squares, stadiums, and theaters once his health improves.
There is currently no official information regarding whether the cancelled events will be rescheduled at a later date. The singer remains focused on his recovery, and organizers are handling the logistical consequences, specifically addressing ticket refund processes for affected fans.
