It began on August 20, 2018 in New York, United States and ended on September 4, 2018 in London, United Kingdom.

Background

Three performances took place at New York City's Irving Plaza, The Vic Theatre in Chicago, and Los Angeles' Ace Theater between August 20 and 25, 2018, following the release of her studio album Sweetener.[citation needed]

Tickets for the intimate shows were made available exclusively to American Express cardholders.[1]

The New York City concert occurred after her appearance at the 2018 MTV Video Music Awards, where she performed "God Is a Woman".[2]

On August 28, 2018, a London concert was announced in partnership with Capital Up Close. Tickets to the show were not available for purchase, instead Capital listeners could win tickets in competition rounds.[3][4]
