TWISTED SISTER have cancelled all of their scheduled 2026 shows due to health issues facing the band’s singer, Dee Snider. As recently revealed, the 70-year-old Snider suffers from degenerative arthritis and has undergone several surgeries in recent years, in order to be able to appear on stage even for a limited time at a time due to the pain caused by the disease. Things got even worse when Dee recently discovered that the intensity with which he still works has also negatively affected his heart.

The band and their management issued the following statement regarding the matter:

“With Regrets,

Twisted Sister Cancels 50th Anniversary Celebration Performances. Due to the sudden and unexpected resignation of Twisted Sister‘s lead singer Dee Snider brought on by a series of health challenges, the band has been forced to cancel all shows scheduled, beginning April 25th in Sao Paulo Brazil and continuing through the summer.

The future of Twisted Sister will be determined in the next several weeks.

Stay tuned for updates,

We expect to hear more about the legendary artist and what the future of the band may hold in the coming period.
