Drake postpones concert due to 'travel logistics'
The One Dance rapper was scheduled to perform as part of his co-headlining concert tour with PartyNextDoor, titled Some Special Shows 4 U, at the Co-op Live arena on Monday night.
However, a representative for the venue announced on Sunday evening that the show will now take place on 5 August.
"Due to unforeseen ferry schedule and travel logistics, tomorrow's performance in Manchester on July 28th has been rescheduled," a post on the arena's website reads. "The good news is that Drake will now perform in Manchester on Tuesday, August 5th, and it's set to be an unforgettable night."
All tickets remain valid for the new date.
Drake has not yet commented on the news.
The 38-year-old dropped the collaborative album, Some Sexy Songs 4 U, with fellow Canadian star PartyNextDoor, real name Jahron Brathwaite, in February.
The Some Special Shows 4 U Tour marks his first trek of Europe in six years, following his Assassination Vacation Tour in 2019.
Drake and PartyNextDoor will next play a trio of gigs at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam starting on 30 July.

Rap superstar cancels previously postponed tour dates
Drake has canceled his Australian and New Zealand shows five months after the gigs were originally postponed. Ticketholders learned the remainder of the Anita Max Win Tour was canceled on Tuesday, July 29 (Australia time). 'Live Nation Australia regrets to inform you that the previously postponed Drake shows in Australia and New Zealand have now been officially cancelled,' a statement from Live Nation read. 'Despite extensive efforts to find a solution, rescheduling within the necessary timeframe was not possible,' it continued. 'Drake remains committed to returning and performing these shows when his schedule permits.' Anyone who bought tickets for the shows will be refunded. Ticketholders should check their email for information on the refund process, Live Nation said. Originally announced in November 2024, Drake's Anita Max Win Tour was the rapper's first visit to Oceania since 2017, according to Billboard. The 16-date sold-out tour started in February 2025 with shows in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. While the tour was supposed to end in early March, it was announced on Feb. 26 that the remaining four gigs had been postponed due to a 'scheduling conflict.' Drake's representatives wrote in a statement at the time that the rapper's team was 'actively working on rescheduling these dates along with adding some additional shows,' Rolling Stone AU/NZ reported.

K-Pop group Seventeen announces ‘New World Tour.' Get tickets today
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. We're almost at the edge of Seventeen. The K-Pop giants just announced they're returning to the United States this October for their '[NEW_] World Tour.' Their brief nine-concert outing is slated to send the 13-member group to venues all over the U.S. but not New York or New Jersey. Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, DK, Mingyu, The8, Seungkwan, Vernon and Dino will get closest when they wrap their stateside run with a pair of concerts at Washington, D.C.'s Capital One Arena on Wednesday, Oct. 29 and Thursday, Oct. 30. These concerts come on the heels of the release of the group's fifth studio album 'Happy Burstday.' The high-energy, 16-song record features solo tracks from each member of the group as well as special guests Pharrell and Timbaland. 'We are ready to reinvent ourselves,' told The Hollywood Reporter. 'Most of the members are going to enlist in the military soon. Up until now, we've mostly focused on our group promotions,' Hoshi added. 'We would like to show more of our individualities, each of the members' personalities and capabilities, so that when the time comes and we get back together again as a group, we'll be able to showcase ourselves as a better Seventeen.' In conjunction with the unique album, the group performed a short concert at South Korea's Jamsu Bridge on May 25. According to Set List FM, they took just 12 songs to the stage and only two from the new album. If you'd like to find out what they have in store for the '[NEW_] World Tour,' tickets are available for all shows. Fans Carats can purchase tickets for all upcoming North American Seventeen shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale is Wednesday, Aug. 6.

Seventeen tour schedule 2025 A complete calendar including all tour dates, venues and links to buy tickets can be found below. Seventeen set list As noted above, Seventeen performed in South Korea on May 25. Based on our findings at Set List FM, here's what they brought to the fans. 01.) 'THUNDER' 02.) 'HBD' 03.) 'HOT' 04.) 'April shower' 05.) 'Our dawn is hotter than day' 06.) 'Headliner' 07.) 'Run to You' 08.) 'Rock with you' 09.) 'Together' 10.) 'God of Music' 11.) 'Eyes on you' 12.) 'VERY NICE' Seventeen new music On May 26, Seventeen released their fifth studio album 'Happy Burstday.' As expected, there are a lot of flavors at play over the course of the 16-track, 49-minute record since each group member has a solo track of their own. To get things underway, the squad's nervy, energetic 'HBD' sets the tone. Upbeat hand-claps, beat drops, surprisingly heavy guitar riffs and a mix of Korean and English lyrics make for the perfect party-starter. We know we're already bopping along. Other highlights include the radio-friendly jam 'Thunder,' old-school, Pharrell-produced 'Bad Influence,' moody slice of pop 'Skyfall' (The 8's solo), jaunty piano crowd-pleaser '99.9%' (Wonwoo's solo) and industrial robo epic 'Damage' (HOSHI's solo feat. Timbaland's signature bleeps, bloops and slinky synths). Truth be told, we also loved Mingyu's hypnotic 'Shake It Off,' S. COUPS' 'Jungle' (it's perfect for cardio and the club) and DINO's '00s throwback 'Trigger,' which sounds straight out of 2006. We love the production and his vocals over the summery instrumentals.
