On Monday (Mar 10), Lady Gaga announced that she would be performing four nights at the Singapore National Stadium in May.
Her Mayhem concerts on May 18, 19, 21, and 24 will mark her first concerts in Singapore since 2012’s Born This Way Ball Tour.
Many Little Monsters (aka what Gaga’s fans are called) are already gearing up for a ticketing war. If Taylor Swift’s 2024 Eras Tour in Singapore is of any indication, a blood, sweat and tears-filled battle for tickets is expected.
Some fans have also started planning their concert logistics.
Little Monsters have taken to social media to discuss their game plan come ticketing day (Mar 18).
Overseas fans are also hoping to link up with companions for the show, with a fair number looking to share the costs of travel packages.
Xiaohongshu group ‘Lady Gaga Singapore’ has already amassed hundreds of members from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Malaysia.
According to reports, some of these fans have already paid for their air tickets and accommodations even before they get tickets.
And we thought us Singaporeans were kiasu.
There are several options to snag tickets.
The presale starts on March 18, and Mastercard, Klook, Krisflyer, and Live Nation members will get the chance to buy their tickets on respective designated presale periods. General ticket sales will take place on March 21. You can refer to the ticketmaster site for more presale details.
Travel site Klook will launch a package which gives fans the option to buy two tickets and a four-star hotel stay for S$589 and up. There’s also a five-star hotel stay package that starts from S$728.
Krisflyer members can utilise their miles to pay for their tickets. It will cost them 26,000 miles to 42,000 miles, depending on the seats.
According to Minister for Culture, Community and Youth of Singapore Edwin Tong, the Singapore government did not provide any grants to get Lady Gaga to perform here. Her upcoming concerts are an arrangement between the star and the organisers, Live Nation and Kallang Alive Sport Management.
