Carlos Santana was hospitalized after suffering a medical emergency as he prepared for a concert in Texas on Tuesday, The Post can confirm.
The 77-year-old icon’s manager Michael Vrionis told The Post, “Mr. Santana was at the [Majestic Theater in San Antonio, Tex.] preparing for tonight’s show when he experienced an event that was determined to be dehydration.”
Vrionis added, “Out of an abundance of caution and the health of Mr. Santana, the decision to postpone the show was the most prudent course of action. He is doing well and is looking forward to coming back to San Antonio soon as well as continuing his US Tour.”
“Thank you all very much for your understanding. The show will be rescheduled soon.”
TMZ was first to report the news that Santana had suffered a “medical emergency.”
Eyewitnesses told the outlet that the incident happened during a sound check and the musician was taken out on a gurney before being put into an ambulance.
Santana arrived in Texas after braving cold and rainy conditions at his concert in Albuquerque, New Mex. on Monday night. Just hours before being hospitalized, he posted on Facebook thanking his fans “for showing up with such beautiful energy and love in the cold & rain.”
“You danced, you sang, and you braved the elements like true warriors of light,” he wrote. “Your warmth and passion lit up the night more than any spotlight ever could. It was truly an honor to share our hearts music with you.”
Santana is currently scheduled to perform on Wednesday in Sugar Land, Tex and Friday in Thackerville, Okla. as part of his Oneness Tour 2025.
The Rock and Roll of Famer’s concert dates have been impacted by health troubles before.
In January, he postponed part of his residency at House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas because of an “accidental fall” at his home in Hawaii.
“I am sorry to say that Carlos was out taking a walk at his vacation home in Kauai. He took a hard fall, and he broke his little finger on his left hand,” Vrionis said at the time.
“He had to have pins inserted in the finger. Unfortunately, he won’t be able to play guitar for approximately six weeks. Doctors do say that he will recuperate fully,” Vrionis added.
“Carlos is doing well and is anxious to be back on stage soon. He just needs to heal. Santana profoundly regrets these postponements of his upcoming performances, but accidents happen, and his health is our number one concern. He is looking forward to seeing all of his fans very soon.”
Santana also collapsed during a performance in Michigan back in 2022 because of heat exhaustion and dehydration. A concertgoer captured the moment on video, which showed a medical team rushing on stage to help the guitarist, who was hospitalized afterwards.
