Co-op Live Arena, in Manchester, had been slated to open 23 April with Peter Kay officially opening the landmark entertainment venue.
Peter Kay has been forced to postpone the 'opening night' performance at the UK's largest and newest arena for a second time - due to safety fears.
The Black Keys, who were meant to be performing on 27 May to a reduced capacity crowd in the lower bowl have also been pushed back to Wednesday, 15 May.Poking fun at the rescheduling, Kay re-released his advertising poster to say he was now "The ninth artist in the world to perform at Manchester Co-op Arena live".
"Consequently, they are having to reschedule my two shows yet again ."Confirming the rescheduling Tim Leiweke, CEO of Oak View Group, who own the venue, said: "We continue to work with the city, police, fire, council, live safety and there are still systems that we either are working on or had to test in particular.
Speaking about the event opening the building, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Mr Leiweke said: "I never thought A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie is going to open the building, but A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie is going to open the building. God bless him. They will be the first.The original delay to opening was due to work not yet being complete on the Eastlands venue, which sits opposite the Manchester City Football ground.
