Birmingham — Post Malone canceled his Protective Stadium concert Friday, announcing via an Instagram story that he will delay the start of his 'Big Ass Stadium Tour' to finish new music; the tour had been scheduled to begin May 13 in El Paso and included early dates such as May 19 at Baylor's McLane Stadium in Waco. Venues and ticketing platforms confirmed cancellations and refund processes this week: the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Complex and Ticketmaster said refunds will be issued to original payment methods within weeks. Outlets report the tour has been pushed back about three weeks and is now expected to begin June 9 in Charlotte, with six early dates removed from the schedule.

Timeline of Events

Post Malone performed at Stagecoach and reassessed his recording timetable.
On Friday he posted on Instagram that he could not finish new music before the tour.
The first six dates (including El Paso and Waco) were canceled as part of the change.
Venues such as the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Complex confirmed cancellations and automatic refunds.
Multiple outlets reported the tour is rescheduled to begin June 9 in Charlotte.

Why This Matters to You

If you bought tickets for the early Post Malone shows, you're getting a refund. Check your original payment method in the coming weeks. If you're still keen to see him live, the tour is now set to start June 9 in Charlotte.

The Bottom Line

Post Malone's tour delay is about making better music, not a cancellation. The first six shows are off, but the tour is still on. If you're a fan, this could mean new tunes at the rescheduled concerts. Worth forwarding if you know a Post Malone fan waiting for the tour.
