Chance the Rapper, as we already know, has postponed “The Big Tour” until 2020 to spend more time with his young family.

We also already know that the rescheduled Atlanta date is Jan. 29 at State Farm Arena.

But the Chicago rapper has announced his supporting acts, and Atlanta's Lil Yachty, along with Chance's brother, Taylor Bennett, will open all dates on the tour. Both artists recently played Music Midtown.

Tickets for "The Big Tour" are on sale now for $39.95-$198 (FYI – all floor seats are general admission) at www.ticketmaster.com and by calling 1-800-745-3000.
