Rihanna Pushes Back First Dates of ‘ANTI Tour’ Due to ‘Production Delays’
Rihanna's ANTI World Tour, much like her cancelled Grammys performance and the early release of her album on TIDAL, isn't exactly going off without a hitch.
Due to "production delays," Rihanna has been forced to reschedule the first eight dates on the tour: San Diego, Houston, Austin, Dallas, Atlanta, Phoenix, San Jose and New Orleans. Those shows have now been pushed back several weeks. The opening San Diego date, originally scheduled for February 26, is now rescheduled to May 9.
The tour will now kick off on March 12 in Jacksonville.
