Justin Bieber’s “Justice World Tour” will have to hold for a little while. The singer was set to take the stage in Las Vegas on Sunday evening, but the concert has now been delayed due to an outbreak of COVID-19 among the pop star’s team. Bieber himself has tested positive for COVID-19, reps for the singer confirmed to Variety.
The Vegas concert has been pushed back a few months, now setting a date of June 28. Tickets for the original concert date will be honored and refunds are now available for those that elect to seek one out.
