Celine Dion’s March 13 concert in Pittsburgh has been postponed.

Singer Celine Dion postponed her Friday show in Pittsburgh to November after a doctor diagnosed her with a common cold, according to a statement.

The Courage World Tour stop, originally set for Friday, will instead be held Nov. 18 at PPG Paints Arena. Dion also rescheduled her Wednesday date in Washington, D.C.

Dion began feeling symptoms of a common cold Monday after performing six shows in the New York area, according to the statement. Doctors advised she rest for several days. Dion apologized to fans for rescheduling the shows.

The illness is not related to coronavirus, according to the statement.

Ticket holders to the Pittsburgh show will receive more information about the postponed date. Original tickets can be used at the November performance, according to the statement.

Dion is expected to resume the tour Tuesday in Denver. She is on her first U.S. tour in more than 10 years.
