Katy Perry 'Witness Tour' Postponed

You’ll have to wait just a little bit longer for one of the most talked about concert tours of all time. Katy Perry has announced her Witness World Tour isn’t quite ready like she thought it would be.

She posted “the good and bad news” on Instagram this week. (The good news is that Noah Cyrus will be joining her on part of the road.)

The tour was supposed to begin on September 7th in Ohio, but now it will start on September 19th in Montreal, Canada.

A press release said the delay was so that Katy can continue to practice on the newly designed set and to “accommodate the complexity of the scope and enormous scale of this tour.”

All tickets purchased for the original concert dates will be honored for the new date, or refunds available at point of purchase.

In addition to preparing for her tour, Katy will host the 2017 MTV VMAs on Aug. 27.
