Katy Perry is reportedly struggling to sell tour tickets

Pop Crave's tweet comes as Katy Perry is allegedly struggling to sell tickets for her ongoing tour. The tour, which supports her 2024 studio album, 143, is currently in its Mexican leg and will debut in the US next month, on May 7, in Houston's Toyota Center.

According to a Daily Mail report of April 24, 2025, insiders are worried that Katy Perry's latest space stint on Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin all-female crew flight has negatively impacted her chances of securing last-minute sales.

Perry's shows in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Denver, and Colorado, are reportedly facing major troubles, with multiple rows of seats still available. Their tickets are being resold at heavy discounts.

The media outlet claims that the regular tickets to the shows cost upwards of $50, with the VIP tickets priced at $200.

"There were already concerns about poor ticket sales even before Blue Origin. They were pretty dismal. Katy truly believed her tour would take off like Taylor’s. Some higher-ups at Live Nation were sceptical from the beginning. There are talks about what to do if the venues don’t fill up further," the source told Daily Mail.

The poor sales come after the Roar singer had to cancel two concerts of her show in Guadalajara, Mexico (scheduled for May 1 and 2) due to the stadium not being built in time. Perry later reassured fans that she will "create something special" for them in the future.


In contrast to poor ticket sales from the mentioned locations, other dates from Katy Perry's tour are close to selling out, including Chicago on May 12, and Canada's Edmonton, Toronto, and Montreal in late July and early August.
