Lady Gaga reveals her six-date Chromatica Ball world tour is officially moving to summer 2021: ‘Keep dancing at home in the meantime’
Lady Gaga has postponed her Chromatica Ball tour, in support of her sixth studio album, one whole year to summer 2021.
The 34-year-old artist is taking no chances with the coronavirus and hopes to bypass the pandemic by pushing back the six-date tour so far out.
The Oscar winner took to Instagram and Twitter Friday morning to break the news, including a pink-haired Chromatica visual alongside text listing the new dates and locations for the six-show mini tour across Europe and North America.
Good things come to those who wait: Lady Gaga’s Chromatica Ball tour in support her sixth studio album has been postponed one whole year, to summer 2021
‘The Chromatica Ball is officially moving to Summer 2021!’ read the caption.
‘We’ve been working hard to figure out the safest and soonest way to bring this show to you, but most importantly want everyone to be healthy and able to dance together at the shows as we always have,’ Lady G continued.
‘If you’ve purchased a ticket already, you’ll find all of the new information in your email inbox. I can’t wait to see you there!
‘Keep dancing at home in the meantime,’ she concluded, adding a kiss emoji.

The Chromatica Ball was initially supposed to launch July 24th of this year in Paris, and is now scheduled to commence July 25th of NEXT year in the French capital.
Following that show, Gaga and her crew will hit up London on July 30, 2021 before coming stateside for shows in Boston, Toronto, New Jersey and Chicago on an almost weekly basis throughout August.
The announcement comes as little surprise, as many artists have made similar moves – Luke Bryan, for example, pushed his Proud To Be Right Here tour from this summer and fall to kick off next spring instead.

Gaga’s decision to delay her shows in Paris and London makes sense especially considering the fact that Americans are currently at risk of being banned from entering Europe altogether in the near future, since this country’s coronavirus rates have been spiking of late as compared to the rest of the world.
The album Chromatica itself was delayed in its release, initially scheduled to drop on April 10.
But with the pandemic peaking at the time, Gaga felt that it was more appropriate to push its release to May 29.
