Venice is definitely a city for one's bucket list

Lady Gaga’s 2025 “Mayhem” promotional tour is proving to be a historic spectacle, breaking attendance records and earning widespread critical acclaim. The tour, in support of her eighth studio album Mayhem, showcases the pop icon’s signature blend of theatricality, powerhouse vocals, and boundary-pushing artistry.

In Mexico City, Gaga performed to a packed crowd of over 62,000 fans, delivering a high-energy five-act show complete with elaborate visuals, choreography, and surprise setlist changes. Critics hailed the performance as one of her most dynamic to date.

The tour’s momentum is expected to reach new heights with an upcoming free concert in Rio de Janeiro, where more than 1.5 million fans are projected to attend — potentially the largest audience of Gaga’s career and one of the biggest live music gatherings in history.

Each stop on the tour features a meticulously crafted narrative arc that merges music with performance art, earning praise for its ambition and scale. Songs from Mayhem, which blends pop, electronic, and rock influences, have been described as Gaga’s most experimental and emotionally raw to date.

As the tour continues across continents, Lady Gaga reaffirms her status not just as a global superstar, but as a cultural force redefining the boundaries of live music and performance.
