Hasn't she already stated she doesn't want to do it? Why would that change? And why would the NFL ask after she's clearly pissed off conservatives many times (which is much of the NFL's fanbase)? She's also far out of her prime, with many other stars being better suited (Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, etc). Her doing the Super Bowl just isn't a realistic option for a variety of reasons. I disagree that she's out of her prime. Madonna performed it in her 50s, 30 years into her career, for instance. P!nk passed on the SB at a time when most artists with a strong belief in the social justice issues faced at the time did, but she's never said never. What gave you that impression? Miley and Taylor are not as obvious choices when it comes to the live performance spectacle factor, which P!nk is renowned for. She's performed the pre-show national anthem there, so there's that too. Hm, what's with the strong disbelief in our girl? She said part of the reason she's not interested in doing it is the scrutiny that comes along with it, which will probably never go away even when social issues aren't present (although right now they are). Is Rihanna known for her live shows though? Or Katy Perry? I feel like they've just been choosing big artists rather than people who are always known for the best live performances. Anthem thing is true, although being able to sing an anthem that all can relate to is quite different than putting on your own show with your own songs and your own opinion. There is far more scrutiny with the latter. I would love her to do the Super Bowl, I think she would nail it. I've made some possible setlists and ideas for it in my head before. I just don't think it's realistic to expect that she will ever do it considering she's not as popular as many other viable options, her opinions are strong, and she's been reluctant to do it before. |

Glad they're not doing seats there. It's a shame in the US there is no pit, although it does make sense due to the different market. |

I really wonder how the AU tour will sell. She is doing stadiums only and judging by the dates they are planning addig a bit more.

I do wonder why they’re not doing the bigger ANZ stadium in Sydney though. It’s the same in England. She is doing all stadiums under 50k capacity whereas BT tour were all the big ones, almost as if she didn’t expect them to sell well or just to do different areas I don’t know. I’m hoping it means the second legs will be arenas! Goes around again next summer to arenas and I will be so happy with that. 😊 |

I'd just like to add that the Super Bowl is affiliated with iHeartMedia (formerly known as Clear Channel Communications) who own most of the media in the US and are affiliated with Fox, who are broadcasting this year's Super Bowl. As you know, P!nk has a long, strong relationship with iHeart, and they are hosting her upcoming album release party event, so if her opinions were considered that problematic to US media owners, the symptoms would show by now. |

Tickets secured, albeit after wasting time because of Telstra's incompetence. Front GA, here I come!

Second dates added in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, and Auckland.
I feel like a third show will be added to Melbourne and maybe Sydney. Possibly a fourth in Melbourne.

Another date has been added for Perth, too. I got my tickets! 🥳 We’re back in the rafters as I'll be bringing along my daughter who will be nine at the time. It'll be her second P!nk gig (her first was back in 2019). Eeeee!

Looking at Ticketmaster, they're doing really good in sales. First dates in Perth, Melbourne, and Auckland are all pretty close to selling out.

Did both Brisbane shows sell out? They're not on ticketmaster.

From news.pollstar.com/2023/03/17/australasia-news-pnk-off-to-strong-start-ed-sheeran-sets-another-record-michael-mcmartin-honored-nz-harry-styles-embraces-maori-culture/:P!NK’s Summer Carnival Off To Strong Start
Within a week of going on the market, P!NK’s “Summer Carnival 2024 Tour” equaled her previous ticket sales.
Live Nation added third dates each at the 55,000 seat Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, the 83,500-seat Accor Stadium in Sydney as well as the 52,500-seat Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane where she became first female artist to sell out three shows.
This brought the amount of shows on the 2024 run so far to 14, staged Feb. 9 to March 19, and total sales are over 550,000, according to Live Nation.
In 2018, she shifted 559,361 tix at 42 shows, grossing A$80.3 ($52.8) million.
A 2013 run of 46 shows generated A$72.7 ($47.8) million from 593,817 stubs. The 2009 visit with 59 shows, shifted 669,824 tix grossing A$55.4 ($36.4) million.
By 2018 P!NK sold 2 million tix Down Under, and confirmed as second highest grossing touring act in Australia with A$228 ($150.1) million after The Rolling Stones’ A$429.8 ($283) million. |
