Start spreading the news... Barbra Streisand is coming back to New York City.

The diva will headline New York's famed Madison Square Garden on Aug. 3, marking her first time playing the legendary venue in 13 years. Tickets for the show go on sale Monday, June 17, at 9 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster.

The last time she played in the New York City area was two years ago at the Barclays Center in her home borough of Brooklyn.

"There are no fans like New York fans and I can't wait to return to Madison Square Garden to perform some new songs, some old songs and anything I find in between," Streisand said in a press release.

The music legend released a new album, "Walls," this past November. It debuted at No. 12 on the Billboard 200 album chart.

The Madison Square Garden date isn't the first show Streisand announced for 2019: She's also headlining the U.K. festival British Summer Time Hyde Park in London on July 7.
