Wasting no time at all, Lady Gaga has announced the dates for the European leg of her ‘Born This Way Ball,’ which will kick off in mid-August.
Corralling her “little monsters,” Gaga tweeted out a photo of the first 21 dates of the tour, which will make stops in Bulgaria, Sweden, the UK, Germany, Italy, France, and Spain.
In a released statement, Gaga explained the tour as “an Electro-Metal Pop-Opera; the tale of the Beginning, the genesis of the Kingdom of Fame. How we were birthed and how we will die celebrating.”
And to add to the surprise, recently reunited British band The Darkness will be joining Gaga on the opening night in Bulgaria. However, there is no confirmation as to whether the back will be the opening act for the entire tour.
More dates are expected to be added, but until then, check out the already announced European dates below.
