Doctors call her ailments treatable, prompting a focus on recovery offstage.

Overview

  • Dolly Parton, in an Instagram video Monday, canceled her September 2026 Caesars Palace residency that had been postponed from December 2025 as she continues medical treatment.
  • She said medications and treatments are helping, yet some make her feel “swimmy‑headed,” so she is not ready to perform.
  • Parton cited recurring kidney stones and weakened immune and digestive systems, and said her doctors consider everything treatable.
  • Ticketing pages now list the shows as canceled, and buyers are being told to watch for refund instructions from their ticket sellers.
