Legendary singer Tony Bennett pushed his concert forward in Pennsylvania due to illness.

The 90-year-old jazz singer was set to perform at the Sands Bethlehem Event Center on Saturday night. But on Friday, the concert was called off, reports people.com.

"(Bennett) has a mild flu virus and has been advised not to travel or perform for the next few days," the organisers said in a statement.

"On behalf of Tony Bennett, we want to express his appreciation to all his fans in the area who purchased tickets for the concert and he sends his regrets that he will not be able to perform for them on Saturday," the venue stated on its website.

"All tickets purchased will be honoured for the re-scheduled TBD (to be decided) date."
