Thank you, Twin Cities, Coachella is next. So says Ariana Grande.
The pop superstar is changing her Xcel Energy Center concert from April 19 to July 8 in order to perform at the popular Coachella festival in South California on April 14 and 21.
She joins Tame Impala and Childish Gambino as headliners for the big-deal desert fest that takes place over two weekends in April.
To accommodate Coachella, Grande has had to reschedule shows in eight cities, including Chicago, St. Louis, Milwaukee and St. Paul. She canceled concerts in Omaha and Raleigh.
Her Sweetener World Tour will make 50 stops in North America, including a just-added May 11 show in Las Vegas. The tour starts March 18 in Albany, N.Y. The St. Paul gig is now the third to the last one on the North American itinerary.
Grande has been on a roll with last summer's "Sweetener" album, scoring the hits "No Tears Left to Cry" and "God Is a Woman," and then adding a post-album single, "Thank U, Next," which recently debuted at No. 1 and set records on Spotify and YouTube.
