✦Grammar Breakdown
Hannoannunciatounanuovadatadeltour
Auxiliary 'avere' in passato prossimo
In the passato prossimo, third‑person plural subjects use the auxiliary 'hanno' with the past participle.
Past participle agreement
With 'avere' the past participle does not agree with the subject; 'annunciato' stays masculine singular.
Contraction 'del'
'del' = 'di' + 'il', used before masculine singular nouns like 'tour'.
Indefinite article 'una' with feminine nouns
'data' is feminine, so the article is 'una' and the adjective 'nuova' agrees in gender.

Cultural Tip
