Nicki Minaj finally revealed the rescheduled date for her canceled show in Manchester after she was arrested and detained in Amsterdam, which caused the postponement of her initial concert.

Taking to her official X account, formerly known as Twitter, the musician revealed that the new schedule will now be on June 3, 2024.

"OK guys, I was JUST RE-ADVISED that we actually CAN NOT do any other date for the make up #gagcityMANCHESTER date besides JUNE 3rd. So JUNE 3rd is the new official date," she wrote.

The rapper assured fans at the May 25 concert that their tickets were still valid.

"I apologize for all the inconvenience this has caused. I really hope you can make the #JUNE3rd show. It'll be really special. Ticketmaster will contact you to advise officially," she added.

The recent news comes after Nicki Minaj personally apologized to her fans outside the Stock Exchange Hotel in Manchester.

In the early hours of the morning, the musician could be seen shushing her fans, asking them to keep quiet as other people were sleeping in the area.

"I love you and I'm sorry this happened tonight," she said.

She also took to social media to address her recent arrest, saying she was detained in a jail cell for five to six hours and her plane didn't take off for another 20 minutes despite being boarded.

"they succeeded at their plan to not let me get on that stage tonight. I succeeded @ getting to the root of it all by recording them & posting everything in real time. I have sooooooooo much video evidence. You wouldn't believe it if I told you," she added.

Minaj was arrested at Schipol Airport in Amsterdam on suspicion of exporting soft drugs. The whole interaction between her and the authorities was livestreamed on her Instagram account.

A tour insider revealed that the "Pink Birthday" rapper was "in pieces" and knew that her fans were let down after canceling the concert 30 minutes before it was supposed to start.

The source added that Minaj knew her British fans spent a lot of money on the concert, and her team worked hard to get it rescheduled.

Since she knew how upset they were, she was determined to "make it up to them."
