The tour, initially set to begin on April 8 in Charlotte, NC, will now start on April 13 in Orlando, FL.

The cities affected by the cancellations include Charlotte, Nashville, Atlanta, Las Vegas, and Denver. Lovato has apologized to her fans and provided information on how they can obtain refunds for the canceled shows.
Why It's Important?

with the demands of touring. For fans, this means adjusting travel plans and potentially missing out on seeing their favorite artist live.
