Maybe in USA, but as much as i love Lana, she's not a touring force...

She is more likely to sell out arenas in Europe than the US tbh.

In America/Europe? I think so, maybe the smaller ones.

Her tickets are actually very expensive because of the demand and fact that she doesn't tour a lot, so who knows. I certainly think shes more popular than the sales of Honeymoon would suggest at least... (Werent the tickets the 2nd most expensive of any female artist behind only Beyonce? I read a forbes article about it a few months ago :emma: )

They were, after the rumors of a Honeymoon Tour, I think she will tour this year.

I dont think she will tbh. That "leak" of tour dates for like 2017 seemed very unlikely to be true or a plan that was turned down, and she did explicitly say that she doesn't plan on touring for Honeymoon because she had just toured :emma:

Her touring power is surprisingly decent. She played to sell out American crowds on The Endless Summer Tour, some in amphitheatres that have similar capacities to some arenas.

She's a funny case because the majority of her relevancy is online. Her albums debut pretty well and trail off, doesn't have big singles etc. The only time she was really a commercial force was during BTD era and that was mostly just in Europe. But she has a huge following online that always turn out to her shows.

I feel like she could probably play a few arenas in major cities, but the prices couldn't be astronomical. But she has that following. She couldn't do an entire arena tour though.

Here in Brazil she could definitely sell out a 50.000 seats stadium in São Paulo and then do a 30/20.000 seats arena in Rio...she's got a LOT of fans here...

ATTENTION: (bad) jokes and sarcasm are still a thing, so don't take everything I say literally. Thank you.

I couldn't picture Lana doing a solo stadium show...

Me neither...tbh, I think she'd fell awkward performing for any crowd bigger than the one you'd be able to fit in a theater, but, hypothetically, I think she could sell a ton of tickets here...

Me too. I think artist/singers who don't "perform" like using props can do a stadium tour well.

Like I saw 1D in the stadium and it was pretty boring. They just sung and moved around. Not sure is it because I'm a homo, but I need something crazy/fun/colorful and "wow" factor like my fave coming out a helicopter or they have a pool on stage.

I mean here's a pic of the crowd (just standing) at an Endless Summer show.

She also sold out Hollywood Bowl which has a max capacity of 18,000 which is more than a lot of arenas. Shame that there isn't box office scores so we could see how many people actually went.

But a lot of artists play to smaller crowds than the max capacity in arenas and tape off sections so they can advertise it as a sell out. Look at some of the receipts on one of Demi Lovato's tours. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demi_World_Tour#Tour_dates Playing to less than 10k people at Staples in LA... Pretty sure Lana could do similar or even better numbers than that, so it depends on how you define 'sell out'.

I don't think she would do an arena tour, but she could manage a handful.

Maybe she could do;

- Los Angeles

- Anaheim

- Paradise (Las Vegas)

- Houston

- Dallas

- Miami

- Tampa

- Nashville 

- Charlotte

- New York City

- Buffalo

- Detroit

- Chicago

I don't know. But I don't think she has to. Her music is more suitable for smaller venues I think
