Lady Gaga Announces “Mayhem Ball” Tour, But Fans Revolt Over Ticket Prices
Pop superstar Lady Gaga has announced her highly anticipated “Mayhem Ball” tour, supporting her seventh studio album, Mayhem. The tour kicks off in Las Vegas on July 16, 2025, and concludes in Paris on November 18, 2025, with stops across North America and Europe, including Seattle, New York City, Miami, Toronto, Chicago, London, Manchester, Stockholm, Milan, Barcelona, Berlin, Amsterdam, Antwerp, and Lyon.
However, the excitement surrounding the tour announcement quickly turned sour for many fans when ticket prices were revealed. Prices in New York City reportedly range from $89.50 to a staggering $2,309.26. U.K. fans face prices between $77 and $737 (converted to U.S. dollars), while some European venues are reportedly charging between $525 and $768.
The steep prices sparked outrage on social media, with many fans expressing their disappointment and frustration. Some called the prices “disgusting,” “pure greed,” and “absolute mayhem.”
Others joked about the singer changing her name to “Lady Gouging,” and lamented the prospect of choosing between seeing the show and paying rent. One fan simply asked, “Why so much?”
Another pointed out that a €168 general admission ticket was exorbitant. The overwhelming sentiment online suggests that while some “Little Monsters” are willing to pay any price to see “Mother Monster,” many others will be forced to miss out.
