Nicki Minaj expanded her anticipated Nicki Minaj Presents: Pink Friday 2 World Tour on Tuesday (Jan. 16) with the addition of second nights in a number of North American cities and new overseas shows in Europe.
A total of 13 fresh dates were revealed for what has already become the rapper’s highest-selling tour to date, according to promoter Live Nation Entertainment. The new North American dates rolled out on Tuesday include gigs in Atlanta, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, Nashville, and Toronto along with just-announced global dates in Amsterdam, Cologne, Copenhagen, Glasgow, Manchester, Paris and Stockholm.
The initial run of 25 arena shows rolled out in December to support Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 album found the rapper hitting the road on March 1 in Oakland, CA and staying out until a June 7 gig in Berlin. The outing will still launch at the Oakland Arena, but now also include a second night at State Farm Arena in Atlanta (March 21), a March 24 gig at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, as well as a second night (April 8) at Boston’s TD Garden, a second show (April 25) at the United Center in Chicago and fresh dates at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto (April 30) and a May 1 show at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
The North American tickets will roll out with a Citi presale beginning today, with additional presales running throughout the week ahead of Friday’s (Jan. 19) general onsale at 9 a.m. local time; click here for more ticketing information. Tickets for the new European dates will start with an artist presale on Wednesday (Jan. 17) begging at 9 a.m. local time, with additional presales leading up to the general onsale on Friday at 9 a.m. local time.
