2007年8月中旬時，因發高燒，曾在義大利莫德納醫院住上10天，在8月25日出院回家，9月4日，義大利傳媒傳出他病情突然惡化、不省人事，及在家中接受醫師照料的消息。9月6日，義大利時間清晨4時50分（北京時間11點50分），因為胰臟癌在莫德納的寓所病逝，享年71歲。消息由帕瓦羅蒂經紀人特裡·羅伯森以電子郵件聲明形式至美聯社公告；聲明並稱：「這位藝術大師與胰腺癌作了長期艱苦的抗爭，但病魔最終還是結束了他的生命。一如他對待生活和工作的態度一樣，他在生命的最後階段仍保持樂觀。」
On Thursday, August 9, 2007, he was hospitalized for observation in his hometown of Modena, in Northern Italy, hospital officials there said. Hospital spokesman Alberto Greco declined to give the reason the 71-year-old tenor was hospitalized, but local daily Il Resto del Carlino reported that it was pneumonia. Announcement of his "imminent release" was made on August 15, 2007, but with no date cited. The report stated that he planned to return to recording his "sacred songs" and teaching his young pupils. On August 21, it was announced that he was being treated in the cancer ward, given tests related to his pancreatic cancer, and would not be released for another few days.
On September 5, 2007, Italy's AGI news agency reported that Luciano Pavarotti's health had deteriorated and the 71-year-old singer was in a "very serious condition". He was reported to be in and out of consciousness multiple times, suffering kidney failure.
Luciano Pavarotti died in the early morning of 6 September, 2007. In an email statement, his manager wrote, "The Maestro fought a long, tough battle against the pancreatic cancer which eventually took his life. In fitting with the approach that characterized his life and work, he remained positive until finally succumbing to the last stages of his illness." In a text message to Reuters, Pavarotti's manager Terri Robson confirmed: "Luciano Pavarotti died one hour ago".

帕華洛帝生於義大利的摩德納（Modena）。少年時代，曾參與摩德納城市合唱團。而他父親雖同樣一副好嗓子，但只能在墨索里尼的軍隊裡烤麵包。
