Madonna has extended the US leg of her Rebel Heart tour, which will include three shows in New York – two at Madison Square Garden and one at Barclays Center.
As Billboard reports, Madonna’s current tour has not been selling out, and has paled in comparison to her 2012 MDNA tour, which sold out Yankee Stadium “in minutes”. None of her New York concerts are sold out yet, nearly one month after tickets went on sale.
Live Nation’s president of global touring, Arthur Fogel, denied a slow start for the Rebel Heart tour, telling the New York Post last month: “We’re thrilled with the performance of ticket sales to date, and we’ve no doubt this tour will perform to the level of previous record-breaking tours.”
“A tour with a budget like [Madonna’s] counts on adding on second and third nights in markets,” he continued. “That’s why it’s scheduled with lots of empty dates in major markets.”
