Pop diva Mariah Carey has announced she's postponing her New Zealand show.

The 'We Belong Together' artist was scheduled to play at Auckland's Spark Arena on February 1, 2018.

 

On Tuesday her label released a statement, saying that's been pushed to October 7 due to "a necessary realignment of her international engagements for 2018".

 

Ticketmaster will contact all current ticketholders for the New Zealand show and those who cannot attend the new dates will be offered refunds.

For those who have not yet purchased, tickets for the rescheduled shows will go on sale at 2pm on Thursday, February 1, 2018.

"It's always unfortunate when these situations occur and we regret any inconvenience the rescheduling has caused for fans," said MJR director Scott Mesiti.

"We're very excited that we've been able to find suitable time for Mariah's return to ensure fans don't miss out on what is sure to be a spectacular show from one of the music world's biggest icons."
