The Welsh singer, 85, who was forced to cancel a show in Germany earlier this month due to health issues, headlined Camp Bestival in Dorset
Sir Tom Jones has delivered another stunning performance, just weeks after being forced to cancel a gig. The legendary singer left audiences in tears whilst belting out his catalogue of beloved hits.
Festival-goers at Camp Bestival in Dorset described the Welsh headliner’s voice as ‘phenomenal’ and ‘incredible’ as he brought the curtain down on the 2025 festival. The triumphant show comes just weeks after Jones fell poorly and was forced to pull out of a German concert.
On July 22 the Welsh crooner announced on social media that he wouldn’t be able to take to the stage in the German city of Bremen due to illness. It comes after pictures emerged of inside Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash’s luxurious £30k family holiday at ‘second home’.

However, he bounced back with a cracking performance in Dundee at the Discovery Festival, and Cardiff is set to welcome him later this month at Cardiff Castle.
Camp Bestival organisers revealed that “there wasn’t a dry eye in the house” as Sir Tom took to the stage on the final evening of the event. They commented: “The incredible @realsirtomjones closed the Castle Stage last night, and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. What a legend. Thank you Sir Tom for a very memorable end to the weekend,” reports Wales Online.
Tom is scheduled to appear at Cardiff Castle on August 20 and August 21. The duo of Cardiff Castle concerts arrive just two years after Tom graced the same venue with three performances.
During his visit, he addressed the audience saying: “I would like to say it feels great to be home. Oh yes!” before diving into songs from his 2021 album Surrounded By Time and timeless hits like It’s Not Unusual and What’s New Pussycat?
Last month, Tom had to cancel his gig after falling ill. He shared in a statement: “Hello to all the fans in Bremen. Unfortunately, I must postpone my show this evening, as I’ve contracted an upper respiratory infection that needs treatment and rest.
“I know this is really disappointing and will cause inconvenience to you all, and I’m very sorry about that. But the show will now go ahead on Monday 28th July, so I look forward to seeing you then. All tickets will remain valid for the re-scheduled date. Until then, thank you for your understanding. Love, Tom.”
