Katy Perry Is Going Back ‘Down Under’ with Another Australia Tour
Katy Perry’s Witness: The Tour is coming to Australia next summer in support of her new album Witness.
The Australian tour will kick off in Perth on 24 July and will continue in Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney. The global pop superstar has four No.1 singles and twelve top 5 singles in Australia. Her singles have achieved 60 Platinum status Down Under with additional two Gold singles.
Fans were delighted to see Katy Perry in Australia to deliver the news first-hand.
The 32-year-old singer revealed the third leg of the tour with fans at Sydney’s Myer, the nation’s biggest department store sponsoring the tour, on Friday in Sydney. She performed at the Sydney Opera house later that night and will also perform live on The Voice Australia’s grand finale and on Channel 7’s Sunrise.
Paul Dainty, President and CEO of TEG DAINTY, that also promoted Katy’s last Australian tour, expects the success to be repeated. Her third tour Down Under from 2014 shifted some 350,000 tickets and was one of the biggest live events of the year.
“The response we received from the 2014 tour was phenomenal with Katy performing a staggering 23 shows across the country. Katy is one of the most powerful entertainers in the world and I am delighted to be promoting her 2018 Australian tour.”, Dainty said.
Witness: The Tour is the fourth tour by American singer and songwriter.
The first leg of the tour starts on 7 September 2017 in Columbus, Ohio and will run across the United States and Canada until February 2018. The second leg will run from May to June 2018, taking place across Europe. Tickets for the tour can be purchased here.
The star’s fifth album Witness was released on 9 June 2017 after a year of writing songs as she didn’t want to rush the album.
Perry enjoyed experimenting, trying different producers and collaborators, and trying out different styles. In order to promote her new album, Katy Perry was broadcasting herself on a YouTube channel for 96 hours, concluding with a live concert on the final day.
