Lady Gaga was forced to cancel her Born this Way Ball earlier this year due to hip surgery, and now she's raring to get back on the road. The singer has just announced the dates for her new tour, artRave: The ARTPOP Ball, which kicks off May 4 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Many of the cities Gaga plans to visit are those she didn't get to play as a result of the previous tour cancellation, while others have never hosted a concert by her before. Tickets go on sale December 9, but members of Gaga's social media network, LittleMonsters.com, will have early access.
Gaga will warm up for the tour by doing seven sold-out shows at New York City's famed Roseland Ballroom from March 28 through April 7. They will be the last shows at that venue before it closes its doors forever, and those concerts have set the record for the most consecutive shows by any artist at Roseland.
