    I saw her there last time she did RDS, was great, weather was beautiful I was front row and sound was perfect but not sure what it’s like further back to be fair!!!

    I think RDS is 30,000+ gonna be a struggle to get tickets!! I was also led to believe tickets on sale next Tuesday 23rd!! GA is €90!!

    Its more than possible she could have 2 rigs on the tour or that she has only a small rig to attach to a stage the promoters would supply so more than possible as far as capacity it seems to be around the 30,000 mark some people say 40,000 but there is No way it's that ,35,000 max

    I know she's got a great rep for her live show and I love some of her music but am I crazy in thinking she's living off her past work , ya seems to be no room for another show

    it's an event on Facebook. realistically anyone can set one up but it looks just like the European event pages. we'll know tomorrow anyway, I'd be more inclined to believe the 18th of June date given that there's a venue also mentioned. hotels are mad money for a Tuesday night though

    I think so TBH her last album was in 2017 but it was number 1 all around the world pretty much. "What about us" was a massive worldwide hit as well.

    Yeah me too. Amsterdam on the 16th, Cardiff on the 20th. I'm just surprised only 1 date and at the RDS. I expected a bigger venue than that.

    really? RDS is fine for most artists and she's not big enough for croke park by any stretch


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,245 ✭✭✭julyjane


    I don't know, just looking at my own Facebook feed there seems to be huge interest. every female between 18 and 40 is going

    And the July date would suit us better because a lot of us have children in school!

    I thought the RDS was getting done up next year?

    It's a long running project unfortunately. Had been being done up "next year" for a couple of years now.

    She is hugely popular ,her tour is one of the most successful of 2018 .
    The RDS only holds 35k, that's nowhere near big enough for her,as she appeals to both men and women unlike most female artists.
    About half the people buying will be as Christmas presents and then factor in the bandwagoners ,I'd say she could sell 60k tickets if the price isnt too high.

    I think she could fill Aviva easily but someone said it's closed next year?

    It's definitely the June date since the Amsterdam date is the 16th and the 20th is Cardiff, that leaves the 18th free and most artists normally tour Ireland just before the UK dates or right after, the July date is too late.

    If anyone is interested, she is doing Cardiff, Liverpool, Glasgow and 2 London (Wembley stadium) shows.

    Would she not be more of an act that was formerly big, like Lady Gaga? She was huge and had a gig in the Aviva, then couldnt sell out the Point 2 years later in 2014.

    June 20th - Cardiff
    June 22th - Glasgow

    That's the only 2 with dates I can find, but Liverpool is next and then Wembley, it's probably the 24th, 26th and 27th.

    Anfield stadium. No official date but it's after Glasgow so probably the 24th.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,245 ✭✭✭julyjane


    those UK dates probably mean no second irish date if the first sells out
