Victoria Monét’s new era is still headed for Charlotte — just not on the original date or at the original venue.
The Grammy-winning R&B star’s Frequency of Love Tour has made a significant Carolinas adjustment as the run gets underway. Monét’s Charlotte show, originally scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 28, at Skyla Credit Union Amphitheatre, is now listed by Live Nation for Thursday, Nov. 5, at Ovens Auditorium. The updated Charlotte listing shows an 8 p.m. show time and identifies the stop as part of the Frequency of Love Tour.
At the same time, the planned Raleigh show for Tuesday, Oct. 27, at Red Hat Amphitheater has been marked canceled on Ticketmaster. That makes the change more than a routine calendar shuffle for North Carolina fans: the Raleigh date had been positioned at the front end of Monét’s North American run, while Charlotte now becomes the Carolinas stop for fans who still want to catch the show in-state.
WRAL reported that Monét cited production-related challenges in a social media update while apologizing to fans whose plans were affected. The outlet also noted that the cancellation changes the closing stretch for Red Hat Amphitheater’s current downtown Raleigh location, where Monét had been scheduled near the venue’s final run before its planned move.
A bigger stage moment for a major R&B rollout
The timing matters because Monét is not simply touring a single — she is bringing a full album campaign to the road. Her new album, Frequency of Love, arrived Oct. 2 via Lovett Music/RCA Records, according to Sony Music Canada’s release announcement. The project is a 22-track set and includes high-profile collaborators such as SZA, Bruno Mars, Leon Thomas, Bryson Tiller, Lucky Daye and Chlöe.
That kind of guest list tells the story of Monét’s current lane. She is operating at the intersection of polished contemporary R&B, dance-floor warmth and classic songwriting discipline — the same combination that helped push her from industry-respected writer and performer to a leading voice in the modern R&B conversation.
The album follows a stretch where Monét’s visibility has only grown. The Associated Press noted earlier this month that she was coming off a European guest run with Bruno Mars and preparing for Frequency of Love dates across North America. For fans who connected with Jaguar II, “On My Mama,” and the lush performance style that made her live show a word-of-mouth draw, this tour represents the next step: a chance to see whether the new album’s expanded sound can translate into a larger live experience.
What Charlotte fans should know now
The key update for Charlotte is straightforward: the show is no longer listed as an Oct. 28 Skyla Credit Union Amphitheatre date. Live Nation’s current event page places the concert at Ovens Auditorium on Thursday, Nov. 5, at 8 p.m. Ovens Auditorium is part of the Bojangles Entertainment Complex, giving the performance an indoor setting rather than the originally planned outdoor amphitheater environment.
Fans who bought tickets for the original Charlotte date should check their ticket account, email, and point of purchase for the latest instructions on admission, transfers, refunds or exchanges. Because venue moves can come with updated seating maps, ticket policies and delivery details, the safest move is to rely on the official ticketing platform rather than resale listings or social media screenshots.
The Raleigh update is more final. Ticketmaster currently marks the Oct. 27 Red Hat Amphitheater date as canceled. For Raleigh ticketholders, that means refund and account guidance should come through the original seller. Fans considering travel to Charlotte should confirm availability and ticket terms before making new plans.
Why the Carolinas still matter in this rollout
Even with the disruption, Monét’s Charlotte stop remains a meaningful booking for the Carolinas R&B calendar. Charlotte has become a necessary market for major touring acts who want to reach a young, music-driven audience across North Carolina and South Carolina. An artist like Monét — whose music speaks to R&B traditionalists, pop listeners, dancers and the social-media generation at once — fits the city’s live-music appetite especially well.
The move to Ovens also gives the show a different feel. Skyla Credit Union Amphitheatre is built for open-air energy; Ovens Auditorium is a more contained room, which could sharpen the focus on vocals, choreography, lighting and the album’s more intimate moments. For an artist whose appeal is as much about precision as it is about vibe, that could work in the show’s favor.
The broader tour adjustment also highlights how complicated modern live productions can be, especially when an artist is launching a new album era with visual direction, staging and a larger creative concept. Fans are understandably frustrated when dates move or disappear, but the verified listings now point to a clear path forward in Charlotte.
For The Konnected audience, the bottom line is this: Raleigh lost its date, Charlotte still has the show, and the city now gets Monét on Nov. 5 at Ovens Auditorium as Frequency of Love enters its live chapter.
