Dolly Parton will not be lighting up Las Vegas as originally planned this December.

The country legend announced across her social media accounts on Sunday that due to recent "health challenges," her six-night engagement at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, "Dolly: Live in Las Vegas," will be postponed from December 2025 to 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," she 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!"

"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," the country legend and Oscar-nominated star continued. "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."

Parton, 79, assured fans that this postponement should not be read as a sign of an impending retirement.

"Don't worry about me quittin' the business because God hasn't said anything about stopping yet," she wrote. "But, I believe He is telling me to slow down right now so l can be ready for more big adventures with all of you. I love you and thank you for understanding."

The "9 to 5" singer recently concerned fans by missing an attraction announcement at her theme park Dollywood, citing, "a kidney stone that has caused me a lot of problems."

Parton opened the cultural attraction in Pigeon Forge, a small town in the Knoxville metropolitan area of the Great Smoky Mountains, in 1986. She's been closely involved with Dollywood's operations since, appearing often at the openings of new rides, cutting the ribbons on new developments, and even treating patrons to live music.

Parton missing a Dollywood event isn't entirely unusual, but postponing by nearly a year what was meant to be her return to Vegas after nearly three decades since her last extended run in the city has raised eyebrows. But Parton assured fans that she'll be back in touring condition in no time.
