The 90-date global trek is scheduled to continue on Tuesday (Feb. 22) at the Gila River Arena in Glendale, Ariz., followed by performances across North America through late June. It was unclear at press time whether Bieber would need to reschedule additional dates due to his coronavirus diagnosis. Neither the singer nor his team had publicly commented about the positive tests results as of publication.
The Justice World Tour was originally scheduled to launch last summer. The jaunt is in support of Bieber's 2021 album Justice, his eighth album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
