Mariah Carey and Lionel Richie just announced a 35-date co-headlining tour, and it stops at Tampa's Amalie Arena on May 26.
UPDATE: The duo have rescheduled the date for August 11, 2017. All tickets for the May 26 show will be honored at the new show, and refunds are still available at point of purchase. Richie, who cancelled due to surgery, said this in a statement:
"When you have been performing as long as I have it takes a toll on your body. Unfortunately my recovery from a knee procedure will not have me 100% ready to start the tour next month. I don't want to disappoint my fans and I look forward to being back on stage so we can all be 'Dancing on he Ceiling' together again."
Tickets for the event go on sale Saturday, December 17 at 10 a.m. EST and will cost you $36.20 – $496.25.
