Lady Gaga concert chronology

Lady Gaga Enigma is a concert residency by American singer and songwriter Lady Gaga. It is set to start from December 28, 2018, at Park Theater, Park MGM in Las Vegas, United States.[1]

Background

In December 2017, Lady Gaga announced her two-year Las Vegas residency at Park Theater at Park MGM, starting in December 2018.[2] The deal, reportedly worth approximately $100 million, includes 74 performances with a possible extension.[3][4] In July 2018, Ticketmaster website had mistakenly uploaded details about a "2 Show Bundle" for the residency with tentative name as Enigma and ticket sales from the end of that month. The link was quickly removed and the residency was finally announced on August 7, 2018.[5] It was named Lady Gaga Enigma with 27 dates, starting from December 28, 2018 to November 8, 2019.[6] Two different shows were listed with the press release, with Enigma described as a "brand-new odyssey of [Gaga's] pop hits built as an experience unlike any other,"[7] while Lady Gaga Jazz & Piano featuring stripped down versions of her songs accompanied by tracks from the Great American Songbook.[8][9] Gaga described the show as "unlike anything I've done before. It will be a celebration of all that is unique and different within us. The challenges of bravery can be overcome with creativity and courage that is grown out of adversity, love and music."[6]

The singer released a promotional poster accompanying the announcement, colored in day-glo paint. She wore a neon green tulle dress by designers Laurence & Chico, and latex gloves and swim cap from Vex Clothing. The image was photographed by Inez and Vinoodh and styled by Gaga's longtime collaborator Nicola Formichetti. Matt Moen from Paper felt that the poster hearkened back to Gaga's fashion choices during The Fame Monster (2009) era, suggesting the singer's return to avant-garde looks. He also found Las Vegas EDM and rave influences in the poster, likening it to an Electric Daisy Carnival.[10]

Tickets

Pre-sale for the show started from August 8, 2018, for Gaga's fan club members, followed by Citi bank credit card holders on the next day, getting an early chance at acquiring the tickets.[11] There was also a pre-sale for MGM members as well as Live Nation and Ticketmaster customers which is scheduled to start from August 11–12. The next day tickets for the show would be available to the general public, including the general bookings and VIP packages for meet-and-greet.[7]
