Rihanna reschedules Atlanta tour date
Rihanna has rescheduled several dates at the start of her “Anti World Tour,” including Atlanta.
Citing “production delays,” the singer has moved the tour kickoff to March 12.
Atlanta, which was slated for March 9, is now the last U.S. date -- May 18 at Philips Arena ( sound familiar, Madonna fans? ).
Travis Scott remains the opening act. All previously purchased tickets will be honored at the new date or refunds are available at point of purchase.
Rihanna was in the news earlier this week for pulling out of her Grammy appearance at the last minute due to illness.
