Little Monsters across North America threw their paws up when Lady Gaga announced the Born This Way Ball will be making its way to North America in 2013. So far Gaga is scheduled to play 23 shows throughout the United States and 3 in Canada. If it’s anything like her Monster Ball tour, fans will be so happy they could die.
Monster Ball was a huge success and made over 200 million dollars. Gaga toured to over 200 shows and performed in front of 2.5 million people. This year, the Born This Way Ball is looking like another success for Gaga. Perhaps Jo Calderone will even make a guest appearance.
Promoted by Live Nation, the tour is set to begin in January. The Roger Arena in Vancouver gets to spend the first night with Gaga before she travels south along the Pacific coast. She will play shows in California, Arizona, Nevada and Texas. Her tour then travels north throughout the Midwest and back into Canada for shows in Toronto and Montreal.
After the shows in Canada, the tour will travel to Chicago and Detroit before heading to the Eastern coast. The final announced date for the tour in North America is March 16 at the American Airlines Arena in Miami. In her tweet on September 5, she said the dates were the first installment. So for all you cities that didn’t make the list, remain calm. More dates are likely to be announced later.
I know Lady Gaga fans are ready and able; however, tickets are not on sale yet. After announcing the dates via Twitter, the singer said to check back for sales on September 18. Although this hints that they go on sale then, it’s not official.
Are you ready to “Just Dance” the night away?
