Britney Spears performs her biggest hits at TWTC Nangang Exhibition Hall in Taipei, Taiwan, June 13.
Having entertained fans with her Las Vegas residency, Britney Spears is bringing all the glitz, glam and spectacle to select venues on along the East Coast before heading to Europe. Tickets for “Britney: Piece Of Me” go on sale later this week.
Britney’s four-year residency at The Axis at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino has been playing to sold-out shows since 2013, attracting fans from around the globe. Las Vegas Review-Journal readers voted the extravaganza “Best Resident Performer,” “Best Production Show,” “Best Bachelorette Party” and “Best Bachelor Party.”
Celebs also loved Britney. Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Lady Gaga, Nick Jonas and Miley Cyrus were just some of the high-profile artists that caught Britney’s Vegas residency.
Now, for the first and only time, Britney is taking her Las Vegas show on the road, saying this will be the last time to see the celebration of dance and pop … ever.
Sponsored in part by the exclusive global licensee of Britney’s fragrances, Elizabeth Arden, as well as Pespi the tour promises the “look and feel” of her Las Vegas gigs.
The adventure begins with two July bookings at MGM National Harbor in Oxon Hill, Md., near Washington, D.C., followed by shows along the Atlantic Seaboard, wrapping up the month with three nights at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Fla. Stops in between include New York’s Radio City Music Hall, Atlantic City’s Borgata and the Mohegan Sun Hotel/Casino in Uncasville, Conn.
Europe is next with the August leg opening at Brighton Pride in Brighton, England. With an itinerary that includes Berlin, Oslo, Dublin, Antwerp and Glasgow, the production concludes later that month at the London O2 Arena.
Presented by Caesars Entertainment, Britney’s Las Vegas residency has sold over 17,000 tickets and has achieved a total gross nearing $137.6 million.
Ticket sales begin Jan. 26.
