Singer Barry Manilow has canceled scheduled performances at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino due to bronchitis. The cancellations follow a brief return to the stage after his recovery from lung cancer surgery.

Manilow performed a comeback concert on Thursday, but his Friday show was cut short after only two songs. His Saturday performance was subsequently canceled, with Ticketmaster issuing refund notifications to attendees. The singer’s health issues stem from recurring bronchitis, which previously led to the discovery of stage 1 lung cancer. Manilow had undergone a lobectomy to remove a cancerous lesion from his left lung. His residency is currently scheduled to continue through April 2027.
