Pink concert chronology

The Beautiful Trauma World Tour[1] is the current seventh concert tour by American singer Pink, in support of her seventh studio album, Beautiful Trauma (2017). The tour began in Phoenix on March 1, 2018, and is scheduled to end on May 22, 2019, in New York City.

Development

After the end of the successful The Truth About Love Tour (which was the third best-selling tour of 2013 with $147.9 million in ticket revenue)[2] and the release of the album rose ave. with Canadian singer-songwriter Dallas Green under the name You+Me,[3] Pink took a break. However, during this time, she released some songs, including "Today's the Day" on September 10, 2015, used as a theme song for season 13 of The Ellen DeGeneres Show and "Just like Fire" on April 15, 2016, for the soundtrack to the 2016 film Alice Through the Looking Glass.[4][5]

On August 10, 2017, the lead single "What About Us" was released.[6] On October 4, 2017, Pink announced she would release an Apple Music documentary about the recording of her anticipated seventh studio album Beautiful Trauma, later released on October 13. The following day, she announced the tour, revealing tour dates in North America. Originally, the singer has planned to play 40 shows, but due to high demand, second dates in Chicago, Toronto, New York City, Boston, Washington, D.C., Houston, Dallas and Oakland were later added.[7] On October 9, 2017, she announced 17 dates in Australia and New Zealand.[8] However, due to overwhelming demand, new shows were added, bringing the total number to 42 shows in Oceania.

On May 3, 2018, after incredible success and demand, Pink announced a second North American leg starting in 2019. Dates include rescheduled shows for Detroit and Montreal after she was forced to cancel them due to illness.[9]

Critical response

A second promotional poster for the tour was used to promote the 2019 shows in North America and Europe.

Ed Masley from AZ Central, who was at the first show of the tour which took place in Phoenix, wrote that "the whole thing was brilliantly staged, with bright colors, interpretive dancing and plenty of high-flying spectacle. If for some reason, you believe you've seen another artist put more time and effort into doing acrobatics high above the crowd, you may just be thinking of Cirque du Soleil."[10] Jimmie Tramel of Tulsa World reviewed positively the concert on March 5, 2018, in Tulsa. He said "Wow. That's really the only word necessary to describe Pink's concert Monday night at the BOK Center."[11] Omaha World-Herald staff writer Kevin Coffey attended and reviewed the concert in Lincoln, stating that Pink has "set the bar very, very high" and that "her contemporaries should buy a ticket, sit in the back and take notes. That's how it should be done."[12] Also L. Kent Wolgamott attended the same show and wrote another positive review for Journal Star, saying that "More than years ago, she delivered the best show in the first year of Pinnacle Bank Arena. On Tuesday night, she did it again with another singing/dancing/flying spectacle that [...] not only sets the bar for concerts, it is the bar." He also praised Pink's stage presence: "When she wasn’t flying around, Pink was in constant motion on the stage, joining her 10 dancers in tightly choreographed routines, slapping hands with audience members and basking in the spotlights."[13] Kirstine Walton of National Rock Review reviewed the first show in Chicago, stating that "Each time you see P!nk you wonder what new elements she can bring to the performance, but each time she raises the bar yet again. Not only does she make the entire performance appear to be effortless, she truly looks like she is having the time of her life on the stage." She also noticed the connection between Pink and her tour crew, adding that "the respect and camaraderie for her band and dancers is clearly evident throughout, taking the time to name everyone individually, providing each of them their moment in the spotlight in turn."[14] The second show at Madison Square Garden in New York City was reviewed positively by Bobby Olivier of NJ.com, who defined the Beautiful Trauma World tour "the tour to beat in 2018". He also wrote that Pink is "a terrific live vocalist with a list of radio hits so long that she cannot fit them all into a single set while still giving space to songs from a new album."[15] After the show in Boston on April 9, Marc Hirsh from Boston Globe, about Pink's performances, stated that "None of this is new, of course. But the fact remains that no other pop star is even attempting this sort of thing, so to watch Pink do it and keep singing remains as astonishing as when she first added literal acrobatics without a harness or net to her arsenal years ago."[16]

Commercial performance

The first official boxscore from the tour was published on March 14, 2018, denoting superior numbers to The Truth About Love Tour. The Wichita, Kansas show at Intrust Bank Arena grossed $1,647,788 with 11,894 attendees, numbers superior to any single concert revenue of her previous tours in the country.[17] The first leg of the North American part of the tour grossed $95,657,338 with an attendance of 691,247 over the first 46 dates of the tour.[18]
