ARTPOP tour

[hell0samuel 59]

South America wasn't a flop really, she just didn't sell out. You can't expect somebody new to sell the same as much as Madonna. Live Nation had scheduled the Latin America leg poorly (way too close to the MDNA tour in Latin America) and the promotion was done poorly. They also made the ticket prices way too high at first, and then made the ticket prices lower and lower again. But I wouldn't call about 30.000 people on average something bad. It's just that she didn't play it safe but went with stadium dates. I think she could sell out at least one stadium in Rio, Santiago, Sao Paulo, Mexico City and Columbia. 

 

maybe i worded wrongly, i totally agree with you, I neither considered it a flop. As you said, with promo and venue consideration, it would sell faster/stronger.

50 shows in Asia? Impossible unless she does arena shows, she's better off with 2 stadium shows in China, 3/4 in Japan depending on album succes, 1/2 in South Korea depending on album succes, 1/2 in Taiwan depending on album succes, 1/2 in the Philipines depending on album succes, few arena dates in Vietnam and Malaysia, 2 stadium dates in Singapore, Indonesia, Bangkok and perhaps one in Israel and one in Dubai??

3 in South Africa sounds impossible, that would mean 3 stadium shows in 2 cities. (unless she does one in Durban, Johannesburg and Kaapstad).

 

I think Europe could easily have 60 dates, Oceania could easily have 8 stadium dates, South America easily 10 stadium dates with proper promotion, North America about 30 arena dates and 5 stadium dates, but she could come back later.

 

 

Also, I think that Gaga should start in Asia again, you can't see a lot in stadium shows so it's more about the sound, and her voice definitly was the best in Asia this time, because that was the first leg. She should do Asia as first leg again. NA as second, then Oceania, Europe+South Africa, another NA leg and then end with South America.

 

1. There's no arenas in Vietnam.

2. Malaysia's far too conservative to host her. She'd be better off just maximising the market in Singapore - they're a 3 hour drive apart.

3. She'd be best to stick to arenas or the new Sports Hub Stadium in Singapore, the only in-between is the Marina Bay Stadium which wouldn't work logistically with her stage, I don't think.

4. Israel + Dubai / Abu Dhabi would be great. She could probably do Istanbul and Oman too, though the latter is close to the UAE as it is.

 

Didn't mean to sound rude by doing blunt dot-points, I just figured it layed out my ideas more clearly.

She could also do Ankara in Turkey.

It'd be smarter to do Oceania after Asia as it is on the same side of the world then work her way over again. I'd go Asia, Oceania, America, Europe, South Africa, South America and finish in America.

If Gaga want the ARTPOP Ball bigger than the BTWBALL, she should do 130/150 dates and take time.

[Future Lover 2,588]

If she wanted to, yes. She'd just have to promo it well and time the stops on the tour perfectly. She needs to start with the US because a lot of the people here lose interest fast. As we saw with the BTWB, the European and Asian fans will wait for her to come. If she promos the singles well + has somewhat cheap ticket prices so could keep adding legs just like with TMB.

My dream I think. Not Gaga's one. 

You could add my city in Latin America

Curitiba in Brazil...It`s a big city (about 2.1 milion of people)... There aren`t a lot of big singers that comes here.. Last one was Maroon 5.. i think

They are building a big stadium here for World Cup in 2014.. She can perform there :)

 

Capacity: 43.000

[Luc 4,772]

I'd go Middle East (incl. Turkey), Asia (incl. India), Oceania, North America, South America (excl. Mexico), Africa, Europe, North America II (2 Honda Center dates + 4 Barclays Center dates for DVD, and one Estadio Azteca for DVD + to end the tour). 

I doubt Gaga could tour through the Middle East, Gaga's way too controversional. Maybe Israel and Turkey, maybe, if Madonna can Gaga sure can. But not anywhere else.

[Little J 0]

I hope gaga brings ARTPOP ball to brazil since she really loved here <3

[drinkmytears 2,332]

Looking at these dates and hoping they are real because they are spread out nice enough that I could go to like 11 shows...

[Griffin 6]

I doubt Gaga could tour through the Middle East, Gaga's way too controversional. Maybe Israel and Turkey, maybe, if Madonna can Gaga sure can. But not anywhere else.

 

Israel, Turkey and the UAE would all be VERY safe options, yes.

 

It's important not to confuse the UAE with Saudi Arabia.

1. Rogers Centre for concerts is smaller that Air Canada Centre

 

Nope.

 

Rihanna's Diamonds Tour in the Air Canada Centre: 16,019

Justin's Believe Tour in the Rogers Centre (was not a full house): 43,817.

 

[Rainbow Unicorn 82]

I think she can sellout Rogers Centre or maybe she can sell between 80 and 95% of the tickets. She sold more than 32 000 tickets with the BTWBALL in two nights, so why not ? x)

[HANZ 4,380]

she should play mostly stadiums next time

[drinkmytears 2,332]

1. Rogers Centre for concerts is smaller that Air Canada Centre

2. She will NEVER go to Hamilton, because for TBTWB Hamilton was just to make up because of the fact that she couldn't go to Buffalo

3. Toronto and Buffalo dates are usually close or right next to each other

4. Maybe she'll 2 nights in Buffalo because for TMB she sold out in an hour.

5. On my way back to Buffalo from Toronto BTWB I stopped by Hamilton to get my tickets for that date and I asked the sales stats, the old saggy b---h there said only about 70% of the tickets were sold, which is horrible

6. And Buffalo is nicer tbh, yes I went there deal with the truth

 

the BTWB was a totally different story. 70% isn't horrible either. She hasn't released an album in 2 years and she's not what's hot right now. Plus most people have seen her in the past few years.
