Arenas??? She has the capability of selling out stadiums (I mean look at Singapore and Mexico!!), so that’s a very strange decision.

Also trying to battle out for tickets is going to be a NIGHTMARE in an arena setting. 😬😬

I have seen her in both venues and definitely prefer arenas. I was literally a meter away from her at ARTRAVE - the best experience ever. If she brings a party, arenas are definitely better.

I also prefer arena based shows! But the ticket saga is also a bit more heightened based on availability.

I might try for Manchester here though!

I guess the tickets will be around the same prices regardless of the venue size, as it is way more affordable to arrange a concert in arena.

Also, there are plenty of big stars doing arenas this year, such as Billie Eilish, because the stadiums are fully booked during the summer (which is pretty much the only time of the year to do stadiums in Europe, especially in Germany and Scandinavia). Artists want to tour in autumn and winter too.

I much prefer arenas from a personal perspective too! A lot more intimate I find.

For acts like Gaga too where staging is a big part of the show it’s more aesthetically pleasing in an arena venue compared to a stadium where it’s sometimes still light when the show begins!

Not stadiums? Nooooooo it’s going to be SO hard to get tickets.

Also it was leaked that she'll perform in Amsterdam in early November.

Officially announced and it's Ball now so will change the title again :D

Love the title as always! Bring it on - going to be a bloodbath and they're on school nights for me halfway across the country but NEEDS MUST x

IS there a pre-sale up for the UK? the link takes me to USA dates only??

For Manchester if you become a Coop member you can get access to a presale on Monday (essentials just download app and pay £1). However the Coop had a presale for JLS this morning and it didn’t go down very well 😅

Gahhhh there should’ve been access to an artist presale for the Mayhem variants we bought!

Why is there not a single weekend date in the UK? The only option I have is the Manchester one, I've got no chance of getting to London and back on a school night.

Honestly I am seething there isn't a single uk weekend date how shit.

SO happy it is arenas!

O2 Priority pre-sale on Monday at 11.30am.

There are gaps, i'm sure more dates will be added.

Yeah it's really annoying but based on her statement that this tour wasn't originally planned for this year, I'm assuming they had to take what they could get and work around all the dates available.

There might be additional dates I think. I prioritize Stockholm but Lyon and Antwerp are options too.

I know I am putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5 but the rushed planning of this - my first thought was that perhaps she is planning a family and wants the tour out of the way before that process begins.

Trying not to freak out… and not succeeding!

Would definitely be Manchester that I’d aim to go to, but just one arena date… I’m not feeling confident about the chances. Hopefully more dates will be announced, but the FOMO I’d feel if tickets aren’t able to be secured for the current Manchester date, would be very strong!

Also I so don’t have the money for this right now x

I always need to travel to see her so anything goes really. So hyped!
