The Prismatic World Tour[1][2] is the third concert tour by American singer Katy Perry, in support of her fourth studio album, Prism (2013). The tour began on May 7, 2014 in Belfast, Northern Ireland at the Odyssey Arena. The first leg will also contain performances in Scotland and England that month. From June to October 2014, the second leg will take place in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. A portion of the money generated from tickets for the second leg of the tour will go to UNICEF,[3] Autism Speaks, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and Susan G. Komen for the Cure.[4] The third leg will take place in Oceania from November to December 2014.

Background and development

Perry first teased the tour during her "We Can Survive" event at the Hollywood Bowl on October 23, 2013. At the event, she encouraged fans to see her on her 2014 tour, stating that the tour would be "magical."[5] In late October 2013, she told Entertainment Weekly that "The tour is going to be fantastic. I always try to take it to the next level. I think people will realize what the tour is going to be like when they listen to the music." She also emphasized that she would be "very close" to the audience during the tour.[6] At the 2013 MTV Europe Music Awards, Perry said the tour would be "less cartoony" than the California Dreams Tour and would be a "feast for your eyes."[7] Perry told Capital FM in December 2013 that the tour would have less of a storyline than her previous tours, saying, "I'm going to bring all the bells and whistles like it was last time but it won't be so highly narrated. I just want a little bit more room to express myself." She further elaborated, saying "I'm just really excited. I just did a big tour meeting yesterday and saw the graphic drawing of the stage and it's unlike anything I've seen for any other artist and it's unlike anything I've ever done. It's different, it's fresh, it's clean and it's actually in the middle of the audience."[8]

Fashion

Ten days before the tour was scheduled to commence, Perry began to reveal her collaborators for the tour. Each day, she posted an outfit design to her official Instagram account. The first outfit revealed was a haute couture dress designed by Italian fashion house Valentino, worn during the third act.[9] The second outfit revealed was a blue Roberto Cavalli dress.[10] The following day, Perry revealed a Moschino smiley face-themed outfit consisting of a pair of peace-sign emblazoned leggings, a biker jacket, a bralette bustier, and a pencil skirt, all with strategically placed smileys, designed by Jeremy Scott.[11] On April 30, she continued her countdown confirming that Nicolas Jebran had contributed an outfit for the tour. On May 1, Perry confirmed that she would wear a pink leopard print catsuit during the CAT-OUR section of the show, designed by The Blonds.[12] The next day, it was announced that Italian designer Fausto Puglisi had designed the Egyptian-themed outfit for the second act. [13] On May 3, Perry unveiled sketches of her one-piece outfit to be worn during her performance of "Birthday" on the tour. The outfit was dubbed her "Birthday Suit" and designed by Discount Universe.[14] On May 4, she revealed that Todd Thomas had contributed a dress to the tour's wardrobe.[15] On May 5, Perry released an image of a yin-yang dress designed by friend and former America's Next Top Model creative director, Johnny Wujek, alongside celebrity styling brand Marco Marco.[16] The final outfit revealed on May 6 was a sparkling bodysuit created by Parisian designer Alexis Mabille.[17]

Announcements

Perry announced the tour on November 18, 2013 via Twitter. She announced the first leg taking place in Northern Ireland, Scotland, and England along with Icona Pop as the opening act. According to the official press release, the tour is designed to be a "multi-faceted spectacular" and will include a special standing pit around the stage called "The Reflection Section" that will allow Katy to be "closer than ever to her fans." The first leg scheduled to take place in May 2014.[18] The second leg was announced on January 15, 2014, consisting of concerts in Canada and the United States. The leg will run from June to October 2014. Capital Cities, Kacey Musgraves, duo Tegan and Sara, and Becky G will open for Perry in different markets.[19] The third leg was announced in February 2014, consisting of tours in Oceania. The leg will run from November to December 2014.[20]

Commercial performance

The first leg attracted high public demand, resulting in additional shows in Belfast, Glasgow, and London being announced within hours of tickets being released on general sale.[21] Soon after, Perry added extra dates in Manchester and Birmingham.[22] Extra dates in the United States and Canada were also added to the second leg of her tour shortly after the leg's first announcement.[23] Due to vast popularity during the pre-sale period, Perry added more shows to the Australian leg in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, extending the leg to December.[20][24]

Critical reception

Colin Stutz of Billboard called the performance a "spectacle of costumes and colors", and noted a surprise mashup of Perry's "International Smile" with Madonna's "Vogue".[25] Emilee Lindner from MTV News felt Perry lived up to her previous "promise" of making the concert a "feast for your eyes and for your Instagram", and noted a recurring cat-theme within the show.[26] Mike Wass from Idolator praised the show's costumes and dubbed the show a "candy-colored visual extravaganza".[27]
