Rihanna fans hoping to see the sultry pop singer live will get their wish, but they need to have a little patience.

The “Diamonds” world tour will launch March 8 in Buffalo, N.Y., and visit Philips Arena April 22.

But even though the show is seven months away, you can pay for your tickets starting Sept. 21 at noon. Citi cardmembers will have access to a presale beginning at 10 a.m. Monday through their Private Pass Program.

Tickets are $39.50-$125.

Known for her hits “We Found Love,” “Disturbia” and “Only Girl (In the World),” Rihanna last night kicked off the MTV Video Music Awards with her new single, “Cockiness (Love It).”

Her previous performance in Atlanta was last summer at Chastain Park Amphitheatre.

My daughter likes Rihanna hopefully, I’ll be able to get her and a friend some tickets.
At least the tickets are not too expensive

I like Rihanna, she has come a long way as a singer. She has her own style. Everyone looks for something bad in a person. When they cant find anything the littlest thing you do is blown out of portion, & they hold it against you forever. Nobody is perfect. Im sure theres ppl on here that post stuff bad about ppl is no better than any one else its just that tmz or the papprazo isnt following you. Rihanna is ok shes young still & learning life like we all had too. So ppl get off her case. If you dont like her singing dont go to her concert then. Thats all I gotta say.

I’d much rather scrub the bathrooms at the Panola Road/ I-20 Waffle House,(without rubber gloves) than pay good money to listen to her wretched screachin’!!!!

Anyone know why Citi doesnt have Atlanta listed for the presale? It was supposed to start 3+ hours ago…
