Justin Timberlake reschedules Prudential Center show after last minute injury
NEWARK, N.J. -- Justin Timberlake has rescheduled his Prudential Center show for Tuesday, Oct. 15, one week after its original date.
Timberlake suddenly postponed this week's show in Newark, citing an injury.
"Jersey, I told you I'd make it up to you and I meant it. We're rescheduling the show for Oct. 15. So sorry that I had to postpone. Can't wait to see y'all," he posted on social media Thursday.
Tuesday's show was scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m., with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. Shortly before, the star posted on social media, writing:
I am so sorry to postpone tonight's show. I have an injury that is preventing me from performing. I'm so disappointed to not see you all - but I am working to reschedule ASAP. I promise to make it up to you and give you the show y'all deserve. Thank you guys for understanding. Appreciate your support always.
A message on the Prudential Center's website confirmed they were working to reschedule the show.
"We are working with the artist's team on a rescheduled date that we hope to have information on as soon as possible," the venue posted.
The venue says all previous tickets will be honored, and ticket holders should watch for updates in their email.
"Hang on to your tickets - we'll email you as soon as the status of your event changes or the new date is announced," the post continued.
Timberlake's "Forget Tomorrow" World Tour performed the night before at the Barclay's Center in Brooklyn. He also appeared at the Prudential Center last weekend, his first local performance since pleading guilty to driving while impaired over the summer on Long Island.
His next stop is the Wells Fargo Arena in Philadelphia on Friday. It's unclear if that show will be impacted.
