US shows for 2024 are really struggling to sell for the most part. Many shows, even in large cities that sold out relatively fast last time are showing most of the place unsold.

US shows for 2024 are really struggling to sell for the most part. Many shows, even in large cities that sold out relatively fast last time are showing most of the place unsold. I was thinking about that. I have to think that, for stadium shows, a large percentage of fans are casual fans that go to enjoy the show and performance but are not big P!nk music supporters. Even in Philly, most of the people around us didn't really didn't know the music. To do two stadium legs, you need people willing to go to multiple shows and that's a tough ask with the prices so high for tickets and the setlist being fairly static. |

I'm confused. New dates added? New tour's name?

I'm confused. New dates added? New tour's name? It's a bit annoying. I would much rather attend one of the arena shows than a stadium gig but I already have the stadium Tix. Wish her tour was a bit better organized. |

I'm confused. New dates added? New tour's name? The title change must be because the new US dates are not during their summer. It's messy but, in reality, the general public probably wouldn't notice the difference. |

So on to the 2024 part of the US tour… I heard some shows are cancelled!? Is it because they didn’t sell out?

It’s really strange how there has been zero promo for this US leg since it was announced.
For the 2023 leg, there was a lot of hype since it was a long awaited, post-pandemic comeback. Yet, she still did Kimmel, R&R HoF, AMAs, GMA. She then released a new album with a full on rollout with promo. Then before heading off to Europe, she performed at the iHeart Radio Music Awards.
So it makes no sense to book bigger venues just a year later, with no new music or promotion. Most of her fans already saw her last year, anyway. I really hope her team has a plan because Miami wasn’t the only date which was struggling to sell.

I read there was more than just Miami… that people were getting info in emails that the organizers cancelled the show. |

Plenty of dates look bad, real bad. Las vegas is doing bit worse than expected, but not the worst
Other dates that don't look so good:
September 15, Los Angeles [Stadium]
October 12, Indianapolis (I think they took a lot of seats off-sale to make it look fuller) [Stadium]
October 15, Detroit
November 3, Austin
November 12, Raleigh
November 18, Orlando [Stadium]
November 20, Columbia (Final tour date)
Last year, I saw plenty of ads on TV for her Sofi date, but this year nothing. I also do remember being very worried at how some of the shows were selling last year (with some looking similar to right now), and yet it all worked out. So maybe we're worrying for nothing. I also have seen some noticeable improvements for some of the shows listed and not listed. But almost few shows are sold out (or even close to it).
More evidence that her team needs help.

I think she should do some promo for the US leg. Get her on Kelly, get her on GMA, get her on a late night show.

Could it be because this is the 2nd leg and basically the same show, hence why the UK leg didnt sell out?? You know what, i really want her to go back to arenas. Am I the only one?? Part of the reason is selfishly the wheelchair bit at the hydro in Glasgow is bigger than Hampden so I might have more of a chance. But also I saw her at the old SECC in Glasgow on the I'm Not Dead and Funhouse tours and she was amazing and as much as shes amazing in a stadium, i'd love to see her put on a big arena show. But would that feel embarrassing for her and her team? I'd love to see her in an arena again as it feels more intimate and she can put on more of a show in terms of lights and effects. I prefer arenas a hell of a lot more than stadiums I just hope though they dont think a Vegas residency is the next step. Thats the worry. Normally when artists start to struggle to sell tour tickets they head to Vegas |

The tour struggled to sell last leg too (even in Germany, the first leg). And arenas are struggling to sell too. It's just the price is so high to see an artist who is very out of sight from the public. They need to halve the prices. And do promo. |

It's just the price is so high to see an artist who is very out of sight from the public. They need to halve the prices. And do promo. Still, I find it worrying. It really needs ads on TV to generate interest among people and improve ticket sales. As for shows in arenas or stadiums, I think she could alternate on the next tour, just like she did in the United States, but just one tour. There's no need to call it a stadium tour and this way she has the possibility of visiting countries where she wouldn't fill a stadium. But it needs a lot of planning and investment in advertising and appearing on TV and at awards shows and an album that helps. In fact, she needs a hit. But knowing RCA/Sony Music, I don't have much hope. |
