2008 has been an incredible year for P!nk, with a Grammy nominated No.1 single in ‘So What’ and her first ever UK No.1 album in the global-smash ‘Funhouse’, which is fast approaching double-platinum status (600,000 sales) in the UK. Her European tour next Spring sold-out immediately, her Australian tour next Summer has broken records, and her combined tour ticket sales are in excess of 800,000. So it’s no wonder P!nk has chosen to extend her Funhouse World Tour and return to the UK next October.
Tickets for her initial Spring tour sold out in hours, with new dates added to meet the demand. Now P!nk has decided to return to Europe for even more dates and has added 2 more cities to her tour.
P!nk will start the Funhouse World Tour – Part Two in Dublin on October 14th before returning to Belfast, Glasgow, Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Newcastle and London, and has added shows for her fans in Sheffield and Nottingham.
P!nk had a message for her UK fans “I'm so excited to go back to the U.K.!! The fans – or should I say friends – are up there with the best. We'll have a blast”.
P!nk’s stunning new single ‘Sober’, the follow up the No.1 ‘So What’, will be released on 19th January 2009.
The ‘Funhouse Tour’ has repeated the success her last tour across Europe in 2006 where she sold out 56 Arena shows and a further 43 Festival dates.
