— -- U2’s show Sunday night in Sweden was postponed because of a security breach and has been rescheduled for Tuesday.

Stockholm’s The Globen venue was evacuated Sunday evening because of the breach, according to a statement issued on the band’s official website. Because the problem was not resolved immediately, the police advised the venue and Live Nation to cancel the concert.

Tickets for Sunday’s show will be honored for the rescheduled Tuesday concert.

“The organizers apologize for the inconvenience caused and thank the audience for their understanding. Their safety is the priority,” the statement said.

U2 is on its "Innocence + Experience" tour.
