Ariana Grande has announced that she’s rescheduling three shows on her current live show due to “safety” concerns relating to the concerts’ production.

The Wicked star is currently in the middle of her first world tour in seven years, in support of her 2024 album Eternal Sunshine.

On Monday evening, she announced that two dates on the US leg scheduled for next month are now being delayed to ensure the safety of those in attendance.

Her show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Sunday 12 July has now been bumped to Tuesday 14 July, while two shows in Boston on Wednesday 22 and Friday 24 July have been rescheduled to Thursday 23 and Sunday 26 July, respectively.

Responding to the news on Instagram, Ariana explained: “We are so sorry for these unfortunate scheduling changes. This was our best and safest option as these challenges with production have come to our attention.

“The utmost important thing to us all is safety, first and foremost, and also making sure you all see the show how it is intended to run. Thank you so much for your understanding and I cannot wait to see you.”
