Carlos Santana Postpones Las Vegas Residency After Injury
Carlos Santana, who previously canceled several shows in recent years due to health issues, has now postponed his Las Vegas residency due to a hand injury.
Santana was set to kick off the 13th year of his Greatest Hits Live residency this month at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, but has to postpone due to breaking his finger while on vacation.
Michael Vrionis, president of Universal Tone Management, explained, “I am sorry to say that Carlos was out taking a walk at his vacation home in Kauai. He took a hard fall, and he broke his little finger on his left hand. He had to have pins inserted in the finger. Unfortunately, he won’t be able to play guitar for approximately six weeks. Doctors do say that he will recuperate fully.”

Vrionis continued, “Carlos is doing well and is anxious to be back on stage soon. He just needs to heal. Santana profoundly regrets these postponements of his upcoming performances, but accidents happen, and his health is our number one concern. He is looking forward to seeing all of his fans very soon.”

The 77-year-old has yet to share the rescheduled dates, but tickets for the postponed events will be honored on the new dates. Some additional dates were scheduled for May, and they are expected to go on as planned.
After the Las Vegas residency, Santana plans to go back out on the road on his Oneness Tour across the United States and Europe this spring and summer. To get more information on the shows and purchase tickets, visit Ticketmaster.
