Justin Bieber postpones remaining 'Justice' tour dates to 2023
Washington, October 7: Pop icon Justin Bieber has postponed all of his remaining 'Justice' World Tour dates until an unspecified time 'next year,' following the cancellation of his tour dates in South America, South Africa and Asia.
The announcement, which was made via the tour's official Instagram page, says "ticketholders will be informed on next steps as updates occur."

According to Variety, the tour, which was supposed to begin in 2020, has already been repeatedly postponed or delayed, most recently because of his diagnosis of Ramsay Hunt syndrome, a rare infection that in his instance resulted in facial paralysis. Most of North America was covered when it finally started in March, but he postponed the remaining dates in early June after disclosing his struggles with the illness.
After resuming the tour in August, he declared on September 6 that he would need to take a hiatus from performing "to make my health the priority right now" after a number of shows.
The tour was supposed to pick up on October 22 in Malaysia, go across east Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, and then resume in Europe in January before wrapping up at the end of March. Additionally, the rescheduled North American dates have not been formally postponed.
Fans of the postponed concerts, who cannot get a refund until the shows are formally cancelled, were not happy with the announcements despite Bieber's prior disclosure about his health, according to the comments on the post.
