Lady Gaga Adds Seven Shows to Mayhem Ball Tour

Lady Gaga has added seven additional dates to her forthcoming Mayhem Ball tour. The pop star will headline the Chase Center in San Francisco on July 22, 24, and 26, and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on July 28 and 29, and Aug. 1 and 2.
Tickets for the new dates will be available starting Thursday, April 24 via select presales. The artist presale will begin Monday, April 28 at 12 p.m. local time.
The Mayhem Ball tour marks the singer’s first arena tour in seven years. The North American leg in support of Mayhem kicks off July 16 with two shows at Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena, followed by stops at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, three nights at New York’s Madison Square Garden, then two nights each at Miami’s Kaseya Center and Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena before concluding (for now) Sept. 15 and 17 at Chicago’s United Center.
“There’s something electric about a stadium, and I love every moment of those shows,” Lady Gaga said in a statement when the tour was announced. “But with the Mayhem Ball, I wanted to create a different kind of experience—something more intimate—closer, more connected—that lends itself to the live theatrical art I love to create.”
The announcement of additional tour dates comes shortly after Lady Gaga electrified the crowd at Coachella over the past two weekends. Rolling Stone called her show during the first weekend “the performance of a lifetime,” adding, “Gaga’s storytelling — creative-directed with Parris Goebel — was transformative, and a spectacle that cemented her status as a once-in-a-lifetime pop icon.”
Ahead of the Mayhem Ball tour, Lady Gaga will perform two stadium shows in Mexico City, four stadium shows in Singapore, and a free concert on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro.
Last month, the singer released her highly-anticipated new album, Mayhem. “I wanted to traverse old ground while breaking new ground, which I think is hard to do,” she told Rolling Stone of the LP. “There are a few moments on the album where some people might say, ‘Oh, that reminds me of this,’ because I do have a style, but I made an effort musically to push myself to a new place.”
