According to her, this tour is about energy, emotion, and getting back to the kind of storytelling that works best in smaller but powerful venues.

The Mayhem Ball is expected to hit dozens of cities across North America, including New York, Miami, Chicago, and Toronto. After that, Gaga will bring her show to Europe and Asia, with the tour wrapping up in Tokyo on January 30, 2026.
