Lady Gaga Announces ‘The MAYHEM Ball’ 2025 Tour: Dates, Details, and What Fans Can Expect

Lady Gaga’s Grand Return

After years of anticipation, the queen of reinvention is back. Lady Gaga, a 14-time Grammy Award winner, has officially announced her brand-new world tour, ‘The MAYHEM Ball.’ This marks her first major arena tour since 2018, signaling a powerful return to live performances on a scale both grand and intimately theatrical.

Set to promote her critically acclaimed album MAYHEM, the tour spans North America, Europe, the United Kingdom, and Australia, kicking off on July 16, 2025, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and concluding on December 13, 2025, at Accor Stadium in Sydney, Australia.

Unlike her previous stadium tours that reached astronomical proportions, Gaga’s choice to headline arenas hints at a more controlled, deeply emotional journey. Early estimates predict the tour could gross between $100 to $125 million, potentially becoming her biggest tour in more than a decade.

And with pre-tour performances in places like Coachella, Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro, and Singapore, fans around the world are getting an early taste of the musical chaos Gaga is ready to unleash.

About the Album ‘MAYHEM’

Critical Acclaim

Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM is not just another album—it’s a statement. Critics have praised it as one of her boldest, most experimental works to date. The album blends a cocktail of electro-pop, industrial beats, dark ballads, and hyperpop elements, reflecting Gaga’s fearless approach to music creation. Publications like Rolling Stone called MAYHEM “a magnetic eruption of sonic rebellion,” while Billboard described it as “a thrilling testament to Gaga’s unmatched versatility.”

Each song on MAYHEM feels meticulously crafted, yet effortlessly chaotic. Tracks like “Abracadabra” and “Disease” have already become fan favorites, showcasing Gaga’s ability to evolve without losing the raw emotional energy that catapulted her to fame. Whether you’re dancing in your bedroom or reflecting on life’s complexities, MAYHEM offers a song for every moment of existence.

Billboard Success

Commercially, MAYHEM has been an unqualified triumph. The album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, making it Gaga’s seventh consecutive #1 album—a feat very few artists achieve in a lifetime. It topped charts globally, hitting #1 in countries like the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and Japan. With over 400,000 physical units sold in the first week and 300 million streams worldwide, MAYHEM stands as a testament to Gaga’s unwavering global appeal.

Tour Overview: The MAYHEM Ball Experience

Designed to create a visceral, high-impact live experience, ‘The MAYHEM Ball’ is set apart from Gaga’s previous tours by its focus on intimacy and storytelling. Gaga has emphasized that the arenas were handpicked to allow for greater control over the theatrical and production elements, ensuring that each fan, no matter where they’re seated, will feel like part of the spectacle.

Gaga promises an “electrifying” journey through new material, career-defining hits, and the ever-expanding lore of her artistic universe. From towering LED displays to shape-shifting stages and dozens of costume changes, ‘The MAYHEM Ball’ is less a concert and more an immersive odyssey into Gaga’s imagination.

North America Leg: The Journey Begins

Starting in Las Vegas, the North American leg will see Gaga travel across the United States and Canada, visiting cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Miami, Toronto, and Vancouver. Initial ticket sales sold out within minutes, leading to the addition of extra shows in major cities.

Fans in North America can expect intimate performances that combine the grandeur of Gaga’s previous tours with the newfound precision and focus that MAYHEM demands. Each night promises a unique blend of spectacle and raw emotion, reminding audiences why the American singer-songwriter remains one of the most captivating performers on Earth.

Europe and UK Leg: Expanding the Chaos

After conquering North America, Lady Gaga will cross the Atlantic to deliver mayhem to Europe and the United Kingdom. Major shows are scheduled for cities like London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, and Madrid, with arena venues carefully chosen for their acoustics and atmosphere.

The European leg of the tour promises to be particularly special, as Gaga has always shared a deep connection with her international fans. Early insider reports suggest that Gaga is planning country-specific surprises at select shows, tailoring her setlists and performances to local cultures and histories, much like she did during the Joanne World Tour.

Australian Finale: A Monumental Close

No world tour of Lady Gaga’s would be complete without an unforgettable finale, and for ‘The MAYHEM Ball’, that honor goes to Sydney, Australia. Scheduled for December 13, 2025, at the iconic Accor Stadium, this final show promises to be nothing short of legendary. Gaga has a long, cherished history with her Australian fanbase, dating back to her earliest days with The Fame, and she’s determined to deliver a monumental send-off Down Under.

Australia’s vibrant energy and enthusiastic audiences have always brought out the best in Gaga, and insiders hint at something truly spectacular planned for this closing act. Expect bonus performances, extended encore sets, and perhaps even surprise guest appearances to cap off this once-in-a-generation tour. From the first note to the final bow, Sydney’s grand finale is poised to etch itself into the history books of live music.

For Australian fans — and those lucky enough to travel there — this will be an unmissable experience, the ultimate culmination of months of artistry, chaos, and celebration.

Special Pre-Tour Performances: A Global Tease

Before the official start of the tour, Lady Gaga is offering fans around the world a tantalizing preview through a series of special pre-tour performances. These select shows not only build anticipation but also allow Gaga to refine and elevate her new material in front of live audiences.

Coachella Appearances

Lady Gaga returns to the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on April 11 and 18, 2025, promising two unforgettable headline sets. Known for her groundbreaking 2017 Coachella performance — which included a debut of new material and jaw-dropping stage theatrics — Gaga is expected to once again transform the desert into her personal playground.

Her Coachella setlists will likely include a healthy mix of MAYHEM tracks and timeless classics, providing fans with the first full taste of the chaos she has been meticulously crafting behind the scenes.

Mexico City Double Header

Next stop: Mexico City, where Gaga will perform two back-to-back shows at the massive Estadio GNP Seguros on April 26 and 27, 2025. Mexican fans, known for their passionate devotion, will get to experience Gaga’s evolving MAYHEM vision before it officially sweeps across continents.

Early ticket sales for these shows have already broken records, and expectations are sky-high for what could be two of the most emotionally charged nights of the year.

Historic Copacabana Beach Free Show

In an unprecedented move, Gaga will host a free concert on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on May 3, 2025. With projections estimating over one million attendees, this performance could become one of the largest free concerts in history, rivaling events by legends like Rod Stewart and The Rolling Stones.

This free show is more than just a performance — it’s a gift to her fans and a celebration of Gaga’s deep connection to Latin America. Expect a full production setup, complete with dazzling lights, mind-bending visuals, and anthemic singalongs echoing across the coastline.

Singapore Indoor Stadium Residency

Finally, Gaga will headline an intimate mini-residency at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on May 18, 19, 21, and 24, 2025. This Southeast Asian residency allows Gaga to deeply engage with her enormous fanbase there, offering an extended experience with varied setlists and deeper cuts from her catalog.

By performing multiple shows in one location, Gaga ensures each night feels distinct, giving fans reasons to attend more than one date and allowing the MAYHEM concept to evolve organically on stage.

Why Arenas? Gaga’s New Artistic Vision

Theatrical Control

One of the most striking decisions behind ‘The MAYHEM Ball’ is Lady Gaga’s intentional pivot away from stadiums and back into arenas. It’s not because she can’t fill a stadium — quite the opposite. Gaga’s reason is rooted purely in artistic control. In her own words, she chose arenas to “take command of every heartbeat, every spotlight, every moment.”

Arenas allow her to control the production environment with precision, ensuring that lighting, acoustics, stage effects, and visuals work in perfect harmony. This level of detail, impossible to fully achieve in cavernous stadiums, is critical to realizing her vision for MAYHEM — an experience that is as immersive and nuanced as it is explosive.

Audience Connection

Arenas also bring Gaga closer to her fans — literally and emotionally. By reducing the scale just enough, Gaga strengthens the connection between performer and audience, making every lyric, dance move, and costume change feel deeply personal.

Fans won’t just be spectators; they’ll be participants in the chaos. The emotion in her ballads will hit harder. The energy of her anthems will lift audiences higher. Every attendee will feel part of something raw, real, and unforgettable — exactly the kind of experience Gaga envisioned when MAYHEM first took shape.

Expected Setlist: Old Favorites and New Anthems

Songs from ‘MAYHEM’

Although the final setlist has yet to be officially released, early performances and rehearsals hint at a dynamic mix of the new and the familiar. Expect MAYHEM anthems like:

  • “Abracadabra” – a dark-pop masterpiece with a hypnotic hook
  • “Disease” – a soaring ballad of resilience and heartbreak
  • “Hexed Heart” – a gothic dance-floor stormer
  • “Chaos Theory” – an experimental collision of genres that closes the album

These new songs will likely form the emotional backbone of the show, guiding audiences through Gaga’s latest artistic chapter.

Iconic Classics

Of course, no Gaga show would be complete without the classics. Fans can expect powerhouse performances of:

  • “Bad Romance“
  • “Poker Face“
  • “Born This Way“
  • “Just Dance“
  • “Shallow“

These tracks have become not just fan favorites, but cultural milestones, and Gaga knows their importance to her live shows. They will weave seamlessly with MAYHEM’s new material, bridging old and new into one cohesive narrative.

Coachella Setlist Hints

Gaga’s upcoming Coachella performances are expected to reveal further hints about the tour setlist. Early insiders suggest that she may debut two unreleased songs from MAYHEM exclusively at Coachella — songs that could become staples of the MAYHEM Ball setlist by the time the full tour launches.

Ticket Sales: Demand Skyrockets

When Lady Gaga announced ‘The MAYHEM Ball’, the ticket rush was immediate and unprecedented. Originally slated for 32 shows, overwhelming demand forced promoters to scramble, adding an additional 13 dates in major cities, ballooning the total to 45 shows. Tickets in cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and Toronto sold out within minutes during the initial fan presale, confirming that Gaga’s live appeal is stronger than ever.

Some cities, like New York and Los Angeles, have already added third and even fourth dates due to the incredible demand. VIP packages, platinum seating, and even exclusive backstage experiences were snapped up in record time, with several ticket platforms reporting waitlists exceeding 500,000 fans within the first 24 hours.

Fans who missed out on the initial sales are holding out hope for even more dates to be added, but insiders caution that Gaga’s schedule is already packed, making these 45 shows some of the hottest tickets of 2025.

Production Design: Visual Spectacle Unleashed

Lady Gaga has always been a pioneer when it comes to live production, but for ‘The MAYHEM Ball,’ she’s pushing the limits even further. The tour’s stage design is being overseen by a team of renowned creative directors and visual artists who previously worked on blockbuster events like Beyoncé’s Renaissance Tour and The Weeknd’s After Hours Til Dawn.

Expect:

  • – A massive rotating multi-tiered stage with hydraulic lifts and hidden trap doors
  • – 360-degree LED screens providing a fully immersive visual environment
  • – Drone-assisted light shows choreographed to her biggest anthems
  • – Thematic costume changes aligning with different “chapters” of the setlist
  • – Advanced surround-sound systems for crystal-clear audio in every seat

Each show will be divided into four thematic acts, telling the story of chaos, transformation, power, and rebirth—themes central to MAYHEM. Gaga herself has teased “major surprises” embedded into the show’s design, suggesting that even longtime fans will experience something entirely new.

Lady Gaga’s Touring Legacy

Lady Gaga is no stranger to record-breaking tours. From her early days with ‘The Monster Ball Tour’ to the genre-defining ‘Born This Way Ball’ and the luxurious ‘Joanne World Tour’, Gaga has built a reputation as one of the most electrifying live performers in music history.

Her tours have always blended theatrical spectacle with heartfelt storytelling, creating communal experiences that fans cherish for a lifetime. With ‘The MAYHEM Ball,’ Gaga isn’t just continuing that legacy—she’s redefining it. This new tour is being seen as a culmination of her evolution: merging the avant-garde artistry of her early years with the wisdom, control, and emotional depth she’s developed over her illustrious career.

Whether it’s her fearless costume changes, her breathtaking choreography, or her soul-shattering ballads, Lady Gaga’s live performances have consistently set a new gold standard in the music industry.

What Makes ‘The MAYHEM Ball’ Unique

Unlike previous tours, ‘The MAYHEM Ball’ is specifically designed as a theatrical, immersive experience. Gaga has said she wanted to “build a world, not just a concert.” Everything from the setlist to the stagecraft to the lighting design is carefully crafted to transport the audience into her newly expanded MAYHEM universe.

Key differences this tour brings:

  • Arena intimacy: Smaller venues = deeper emotional connection
  • Narrative structure: Each segment tells part of Gaga’s MAYHEM story
  • New music focus: Heavily highlighting MAYHEM without ignoring the hits
  • Visual innovation: Using drone lights, immersive screens, and experimental stage technology
  • Global inclusivity: Pre-tour performances and special free events to reach broader audiences

In short, this isn’t just another concert—it’s a landmark cultural moment.

Conclusion: The Tour of a Lifetime

Lady Gaga’s ‘The MAYHEM Ball’ 2025 Tour isn’t just her latest musical journey—it’s a cultural event destined to leave an indelible mark on fans around the world. Whether you’re a longtime Little Monster or someone experiencing Gaga’s magic for the first time, this tour offers an unparalleled opportunity to witness one of the greatest performers of our generation at the height of her powers.

With new music, stunning visuals, heartfelt performances, and a deep personal connection to her fans, Gaga’s return to arenas is more than a comeback—it’s a celebration of artistry, rebellion, and pure, unfiltered mayhem.

Secure your tickets, mark your calendars, and prepare for an unforgettable adventure. The future belongs to the bold — and in 2025, Lady Gaga reigns supreme.
