Today, 14-time Grammy Award-winner Lady Gaga announced seven new shows on The MAYHEM Ball tour, adding three nights in San Francisco and four in Los Angeles. She’ll headline Chase Center on July 22, 24, and 26, and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on July 28, 29, August 1, and 2.
The announcement follows Gaga’s headlining performances at Coachella over the past two weekends, which critics across the globe called one of the most iconic festival performances in recent memory. Her nearly two-hour set, described by Rolling Stone as a “transformative… spectacle that cemented her status as a once-in-a-lifetime pop icon,” saw Gaga turn the desert into her own operatic battleground of light and dark. The Guardian called it “a thrilling all-timer of a performance,” citing her “dexterous and luminous” vocals and immersive, five-act structure. The Los Angeles Times echoed this sentiment, calling it “a queenly assertion of her star power,” noting her “strong and gutsy” live vocals and raw connection with fans. Variety described the performance as “a masterclass in pop performance,” while The Hollywood Reporter celebrated the show as “definitively one of the most well constructed and over-the-top productions to ever grace the Indio polo field.” With Vulture praising her for delivering “equal parts theatrics and vocal prowess,” and Billboard writing “Lady Gaga gave what will likely come to be remembered as one of the all-time great Coachella headline performances, dazzling the crowd with a stunning multi-act show that transformed the stage into an opera house,” Gaga’s Coachella performances have only heightened anticipation for the global run of The MAYHEM Ball.
Ahead of her tour, Gaga will play two stadium shows in Mexico City, four stadium shows in Singapore, and a landmark free concert on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro. She will then kick off The MAYHEM Ball tour on July 16 in Las Vegas and continue with dates across North America, Europe the UK and Australia this year in support of her latest album, MAYHEM, which received widespread acclaim from critics and fans upon release and debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, marking Gaga’s seventh consecutive No. 1 album. Earlier this month, due to overwhelming global demand, Lady Gaga added 13 new dates—all of which proceeded to sell out at on-sale in a powerful reflection of her bond with fans.

Taking the world by storm, MAYHEM continues to dominate the charts and break records. Now in its seventh week, it remains one of the biggest releases of the year, with Top 10 positions across key charts including The Billboard Top 200, Digital Albums, Top 200 Pop, and Top Albums. It also continues to retain the No. 1 spot on the Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart— her eighth career No. 1 on the tally, making her the most successful artist of all time in the chart’s history.
The fastest-selling international release of the year, MAYHEM debuted at No. 1 in 12 countries, including the U.S., UK, Germany, Japan, Italy, Canada, Australia, France, Spain, Mexico, Brazil, and South Korea, and landed at No. 2 in the Netherlands and Sweden—further cementing Gaga’s global dominance. “Abracadabra” entered the UK Singles Chart at No. 3 and the UK Airplay Chart at No. 2, while in France, MAYHEM posted the biggest first-week sales since Born This Way. In Japan, it ranked among the biggest international albums in recent years; in Finland, it was the only international album to crack the Top 10; and in Ireland, three MAYHEM tracks landed in the Top 40—reinforcing its worldwide impact.
Marking her biggest streaming week ever, MAYHEM amassed over 240 million streams worldwide in its first week alone, and has since generated 6 billion global all-time streams to date. MAYHEM also marked her biggest vinyl week ever, with 74,000 units sold across 14 collectible variants, some of which featured exclusive bonus tracks like “Kill for Love” and “Can’t Stop the High.” The digital edition of the album includes music videos for “Die With a Smile,” “Disease,” and “Abracadabra,” all of which helped fuel the album’s massive first week impact.
Last week, Gaga released “Abracadabra – Gesaffelstein Remix,” a new version of the MAYHEM track featuring the French DJ and producer who joined her on stage during weekend one of Coachella for a surprise performance of “Killa” from the album. With the original version of “Abracadabra” amassing nearly 300 million streams on Spotify and over 600 million across DSPs to date, listen to the “Abracadabra (Gesaffelstein Remix)” HERE
“Die With a Smile,” Gaga’s collaboration with Bruno Mars, continues to break records, securing a 17th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 chart, making it the second-longest running No. 1 in Billboard Global 200 chart history. With 2.3 billion streams on Spotify and 4.5 billion streams across DSPs, “Die With a Smile” has spent 183 days at #1 on the Spotify global chart, the most of any song ever.
MAYHEM marks a return to Gaga’s pop roots, reaffirming that she is a master of reinvention, crafting an album that is as bold and eclectic as it is deeply personal. A declaration of artistic freedom, it embraces the fractured pieces of oneself and how they come together to form something unexpected and beautiful. The album mirrors this concept with its diverse sonic palette and thematic layers, combining elements of chaos, defiance, and vulnerability into a cohesive artistic statement. Gaga describes this process as assembling a shattered mirror: “Even if you can’t put the pieces back together perfectly, you can create something memorable and whole in its own way.”
Critics have praised MAYHEM as a bold return to form that reaffirms Gaga’s status as one of pop’s most inventive voices. The New York Times noted that in an era of so-called lowercase pop, Gaga “still has the caps-lock on in a bold, 96-point font,” applauding her precision and flair as a performer. The Los Angeles Times called the album “a winning reclamation of her trademark sound,” while The Wall Street Journal said it “easily ranks with her best.” The New Yorker described it as “instantly lovable” and “bombastic,” with hooks that “overwhelm the brain with dopamine.” The Atlantic highlighted its “warm, strangely moving” quality and called it “a muscular, gutsy, never-a-dull-minute work of bricolage.” Pitchfork characterized MAYHEM as a “maximalist pop symphony,” bursting with hooks and indulgent production flourishes, while Rolling Stone praised Gaga for sounding like her most authentic self, calling it “the year’s strongest pop release.” Billboard wrote that the album “refuses to be easily categorized,” weaving together industrial techno and soulful balladry into a statement of intentional disorder. Vogue described it as Gaga’s “rawest and most experimental music to date,” and Variety noted that it revitalizes the touchstones of her earliest work while remaining “contemporaneously fresh.”
