Previously announced Post Malone concerts appear to be canceled, including two in Texas, after the artist delayed his upcoming stadium tour and shared an poster that removed multiple Texas dates from the schedule.
Post Malone announced on Instagram that he is pushing back his "Big Ass Stadium Tour" by about three weeks, citing the need to finish new music before heading out on the road.
In a statement shared to his Instagram Stories on Friday, May 1, the artist said that after reviewing the tour schedule following Stagecoach, a country music festival held in California, it became clear that the timeline “isn’t really lining up.”“We ain’t ready for tour just yet, so I’m making the decision to push the tour back about three weeks to get this music done,” Post Malone wrote.
Along with the message, the artist shared an tour poster for the stadium run featuring Jelly Roll and Carter Faith. The poster reflects significant changes — including the removal of multiple Texas dates that had appeared on earlier versions of the tour schedule circulating online.

The Ticketmaster sales page for the El Paso concert lists the event as canceled. The page states that refunds will be issued automatically to the original payment method once funds are received from the event organizer and should appear within 14 to 21 days.
If tickets were transferred, the refund will go to the fan who originally purchased them, according to Ticketmaster.
Tour changes come amid reports of slow ticket sales
The tour changes come amid reporting from several music‑industry and local news outlets noting slow ticket sales at some stadium tour stops.
Widespread ticket availability at multiple venues was reported by Digital Music News, which cited seating charts and pricing data showing large sections unsold in the weeks leading up to the tour.
The cancellation of the Waco tour stop was also reported by The Baylor Lariat, which said the decision followed speculation about low ticket sales, though no official reason was given.
Post Malone did not cite ticket sales as a reason for the schedule changes. In his Instagram statement, he apologized to fans planning to attend the “few canceled shows” and said he was focused on completing new music before returning to tour.
