A message posted on Eric’s official website reads, “Following the advice of global healthcare agencies and local government instructions, we are sorry that we have no alternative but to announce that Eric Clapton’s European Tour planned for May/June 2020 will now be rescheduled to Spring 2021. The health and safety of our band, crew, venue staff and fans are our top priority.”
