Country music trio Lady A will not appear at this year’s Colorado State Fair after the group postponed its North American tour and its Pueblo performance with it.

The show was originally scheduled for Friday, Sept. 2, and will now be rescheduled to one year later on Friday, Sept. 1, 2023.

According to the fair, current ticket holders have the option of keeping their tickets for the 2023 show or receive a full refund if requested by Nov. 30, 2022. Refunds are available where tickets were purchased.

Anyone who purchased tickets online through the Colorado State Fair website at etix.com will receive an email with a link to request a refund by Aug. 12, 2022.

Refunds for cash purchases must be done at the Colorado State Fair box office, located at the Southwest Motors Events Center, 950 S. Prairie Ave.

'We're family': Lady A postpones tour to support Charles Kelley's 'journey to sobriety'

The box office is open Monday through Friday, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Customers can also call the box office at 719-404-2071. Tickets for the rescheduled show will go on sale on Dec. 1, 2022.

In a Twitter post announcing the postponement of the tour, Lady A, formerly known as Lady Antebellum, said, “Being on the road with our fans is our greatest joy, so it was a hard but important decision to make.”

“We are a band, but more importantly … we’re family. We’re proud to say that (Lady A singer and founding member Charles Kelley) has embarked on a journey to sobriety,” the post said.

“So, right now in order to be the healthiest, strongest and most creative band we can be, Lady A will take the time with the support of our families and team of professionals to walk through this together.”

The Colorado State Fair is researching replacement act options and will announce any updates at a later time.
