Jon Bon Jovi cancels show after testing positive for coronavirus – NJ.com

Jon Bon Jovi canceled a performance in Miami on Saturday night after testing positive for the coronavirus.

The 59-year-old Sayreville native is vaccinated and isn’t experiencing any symptoms, according to multiple media reports.

Two of his bandmates stuck around to perform for the crowd gathered at The Loews Miami Beach Hotel for the second of a three-night stand described as an “intimate acoustic storyteller performance.”

Bon Jovi learned he was positive a short time before the show after a rapid test turned up positive.

The event also included a question and answer session, a Halloween party and a photo with Bon Jovi, according to the website of Runaway Tours, the event organizer.

Guests were required to either be vaccinated or show the results of a negative test taken within 72 hours before the concert.

Two members of his band and Bon Jovi’s son have previously tested positive, APP.com reported.
