Those waiting for the return of “Queen B” to Western Pennsylvania will have to wait a little longer.

In a tweet released Wednesday by the official Acrisure Stadium account, the facility announced that Beyonce’s “Renaissance World Tour” show scheduled for August 3 was postponed due to “logistics and scheduling issues”. Those issues were not specified.

Those who purchased tickets for the August 3 show automatically had their purchases refunded. A statement tweeted out later by Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey stated that the city was “disappointed” with the news, and that the city was in talks with the tour promoters for a potential rescheduled date.

Beyonce last performed at then-Heinz Field back on May 31, 2016 during her “The Formation: World Tour” in front of a crowd of 36,325. The stadium set an attendance record last month when Taylor Swift performed in front of a crowd of 73,117.
