Katy Perry is hitting the road to support her latest album, 2013’s Prism, with a massive world trek called “The Prismatic World Tour.” The 46-city North American leg will feature the up-and-coming opening acts Tegan and Sara, Capital Cities and Kacey Musgraves, and it kicks off June 22nd with a performance in Raleigh, North Carolina.
This will be Perry’s first tour since her 2011 “California Dreams” romp – and, naturally, she is planning an elaborate spectacle. According to a press release, the singer is utilizing a “state-of-the-art stage,” designed by Perry herself, that “will provide concert-goers with a truly magical experience from every angle in the arena.” To get truly intimate, fans will need to purchase a general admission ticket in the glamorously titled “Reflection Section.”
“This colorful show will bring you all the songs you know as well as ones from my new album, PRISM,” Perry says in a statement. She added, “I’m so excited that I got to hand-select some of my favorite artists to join me on this journey. I know you’ll love Capital Cities, Kacey Musgraves and Tegan and Sara as much as I do.”
Citi cardholders will be granted access to ticket presales starting Tuesday, January 21st at 10 a.m. local time through the Citi Private Pass Program; an early sale will also take place through Facebook on January 23rd. Details are available at Perry’s website. The Prismatic tour will also benefits various charities through Tickets for Charity; in addition, one dollar from each ticket sold for the North American leg will benefit UNICEF.
