Pop sensation Katy Perry is headed to Saitama Super Arena with two concerts on December 3rd and 4th as part of her worldwide The Lifetimes Tour. The tour supports her seventh studio album, titled 143, and marks her first major concert series in seven years.
Kicking off in Mexico City in April, the Lifetimes Tour has been entertaining fans around the world, with the show following Perry as a half-human, half-machine heroine navigating a digital world in a mission to defeat a rogue artificial intelligence called Mainframe. Each section of the concert is styled as a "level," with music, costumes, and effects reflecting the journey of the narrative. A look at the Sydney, Australia event earlier in the year gives you an idea of what to expect!
Fans in Japan can look forward to a mix of new tracks from 143, including Artificial, Woman's World, and Lifetimes, alongside beloved hits like Teenage Dream, Roar, California Gurls, and Firework. One of the most exciting parts of the show is the "Choose Your Own Adventure" segment, where the audience can vote on two surprise songs each night by scanning a QR code. This interactive element adds a unique and personal touch to each concert.
The tour's production features elaborate staging, including flying sequences, laser battles, and creative use of LED visuals, all of which bring Perry's imaginative world to life. For more information about ticketing, please visit the official site here.
