GAGA and her team fumbled the momentum they had after coachella and copacobana

g0rl if Gaga does a stadium tour people say they want arenas and when she does arenas they say they want stadiums

stadium tours are lowkey a scam especially if you can’t afford good tickets

Little Managers’ obsession with stadium tours needs to be studied. 
 

You are literally being fed this era with arguably the best album of her career, the best tour of her career, and the happiest and healthiest she’s ever been and you find a reason to complain because said virtually perfect show takes place in an arena rather than a stadium? 

I’ve been to many stadium shows and it’s great to be among so many other people to make it feel bigger, but literally everything else about the show itself works better in arenas—it looks better, she has more control over the show, it sounds better, and the fans have a more intimate experience. Gaga is clearly happy performing as many times as she needs and it’s not like she’s doing 6 shows in a row on consecutive days. She’s literally killing it night in and night out and it’s fans like you who quite frankly don’t deserve what she’s putting out. If you hate it that much, support a different artist and get an inferior artist, show, and music but enjoy the ***stadium***

Another day, another little manager post. Tired. The stadium shows suck because everyone is too far from the stage and the acoustics and lighting are limited in quality. Arena shows are more intimate and immersive.  If you want to be on her management team so bad, reach out to Bobby with your thoughts, not us.

By the way things sound from that tour announcement, the tour being stadium only wouldn't have begun until next year which wouldn't have been great, it would've started at basically the end of the album's promo cycle, which isn't always wise. Much preferable to start a tour during a promo cycle, so you can release one or two singles on tour, which increases demand for later shows and if the album gets a later injection of interest from that, more shows can be added for those who are just now getting into the album.

The Japan dates at the start of 2026 are all the proof that the tour's going to keep going. If rumours are to be believed, there are more world dates coming. I've said many times now - she missed out so many cities/states in the US alone that she always goes to. I mean, she didn't book Texas at all and she did 2 stadium shows there with CBT, we know she has the demand. And only one city for the whole of Canada? And as for Europe, it was almost exclusively west, she didn't go to places she always goes to like Italy and Switzerland. This all suggests that next year, she'll add new countries as well as cities she missed. I think there's a reason she's only doing the most "obvious" cities and countries with these initial dates. It's just to cover the biggest places you can't snub and then she'll come back to do the rarely travelled to locations and old favourites. These dates are just to get her started, hopefully, the album will get noticed again with The Dead Dance and demand will increase for later dates. 

I'm hoping we can trust the process on this one. With the dates as they stand, she might just scrape past her $227 million record but it'll be close and I think her team know that and will ensure this tour grows and grows until it becomes her highest grossing ever. They can't let this opportunity pass. Whatever happens, she already did an all-stadium tour with CBT, small as it was, so she's crossed that off her list. Though I would've loved if she'd just done all stadiums right from the start and come out swinging.

I think for an artist to be able to sell out arenas or stadiums within minutes, considering shes been around since 2008, when many of you were babies lol, is very good.

Tbh I have been to the stadium tour for Chromatica Ball and paid like 250 Euros for upper seats where I only could see her through a screen.

For Mayhem Ball I got GA tickets for 120 Euros and I guess I will be much closer to her this time around. 

So I think my fan experience will be Mayhem Ball > Chromatica Ball

Also considering the expenses.....
