Katy Perry going on tour, and you’re gonna hear her roar Dec. 15 in Tampa
Pop music superstar Katy Perry is coming to Tampa.
Perry’s “Witness” tour kicks off in September, and three months later, on Dec. 15 to be exact, it will stop at Tampa’s Amalie Arena. The tour was supposed to start Sept. 7 but was postponed due to “production delays.” That postponement caused some rescheduling of tour dates but does not affect the Tampa concert.
Publicity materials indicate a spectacular show: “ ‘Witness: The Tour’ is an imaginative trip from outer-space to inner-space, from the planets to the bottom of our oceans, and a musical journey through Katy Perry’s biggest milestones and mega-hits right up to her latest album. The dramatically original staging means that there isn’t a bad seat in the house, when Katy brings out her band and dancers, along with all the bells and whistles.”
The opening act for the Tampa concert is Purity Ring, a Canadian electronic pop duo.
Tickets are already on sale. Prices are $45.75, $85.75, $145.75 and $195.75 plus service charge. Call 813-301-2500 or go to amaliearena.com.
