Beyonce accepts an award at the 65th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 5, 2023, in Los Angeles.

Beyonce is no longer coming to Pittsburgh.

The singer’s Aug. 3 show has been canceled because of “logistics and scheduling issues,” Acrisure Stadium officials shared on social media Wednesday.

“The Pittsburgh stop of the RENAISSANCEWORLD TOUR will not be taking place,” read a statement from the stadium. “Refunds will automatically be issued at point of purchase. If you have any questions or issues regarding your ticket order, please contact your point of purchase.”

The pop superstar announced the tour stop back in early February. Early Wednesday, the Ticketmaster site was still offering seats for the show, with the lowest at about $50. However, by 11 a.m. the tour date was removed from Beyonce’s official website and the Ticketmaster page was updated with the cancellation information.

In addition to the Pittsburgh news, Beyonce’s team also announced that her Seattle concert will move from Sept. 13 to Sept. 14 and her Kansas City show on Sept. 18 will now be Oct. 1.

Both the Seattle and Kansas City venues also cited “production logistics and scheduling issues” as the reason for the moves.

Beyonce will begin the North American leg of the tour this weekend in Toronto.

Beyonce’s most recent album, “Renaissance,” came out last summer and features the songs “Break My Soul” and “Cuff It.”

Beyonce last played in Pittsburgh on May 31, 2016, at Heinz Field, on her Formation tour.
