Rihanna Announces ‘Diamonds World Tour’ North American Tour Dates

Rihanna is hitting the road! Beginning September 14th, you can purchase tickets to Rihanna’s “Diamonds World Tour” which kicks off in Buffalo, NY on March 8th, 2013.

Not sure as to why it’s being called the “Diamonds World Tour,” but hopefully it has something to do with a new album. Check out the official press release, tour trailer, and North American tour dates below.

Rihanna’s previous tour, the extremely successful “LOUD” Tour solidified Rihanna’s status as one of the top female solo artists of this century.  The LOUD tour grossed 90 million worldwide to become the 7th highest grossing tour of 2011 and included a historic 10 Sold Out concerts at London’s O2 Arena – a first by a female solo artist.

The announcement of Rihanna’s Diamonds World Tour follows an epic headlining performance at last night’s MTV Video Music Awards.
