Today’s announcement follows Gaga’s highly anticipated return to the MTV VMAs this past Sunday, where she performed her new single “The Dead Dance” from Madison Square Garden and took home four awards, including Artist of the Year and Best Collaboration for “Die with a Smile,” her smash hit with Bruno Mars.

“The Dead Dance,” produced by Gaga alongside Andrew Watt and Cirkut, debuted last week with a cinematic video directed by visionary Tim Burton and produced by Michael Polansky, Burton, and Natalie Testa. Marking Gaga’s first creative collaboration with Burton, the story was brought to life on location at Isla de las Muñecas—Mexico’s infamous Island of the Dolls. The video shifts between stark black-and-white and bursts of vivid color, weaving eerie doll imagery with Gaga’s commanding performance. Costumes were designed by Colleen Atwood, with choreography from Parris Goebel and featured choreography from Corey Baker.

The song—which was featured in Netflix’s Wednesday Season 2 (Part 2), where Gaga makes a cameo as the mysterious Rosaline Rotwood—was praised as both “haunting” and an “electro pop banger,” with “a bouncy 1980s electro pop vibe, propelled by funhouse keyboards and bright drum machine beats” (BILLBOARD). ROLLING STONE called it a “soaring pop track” with a “serious dance-ready beat,” while NME highlighted the spooky, funky energy, pointing to its “infectious bassline, ‘Thriller’-esque synths and licks of electric guitar.”

Since it launched on July 16, Lady Gaga’s The MAYHEM Ball tour has drawn rave reviews from critics including the NEW YORK TIMES who hailed it as a “deliciously campy extravaganza” and described Gaga as “operating at the peak of her powers.” ROLLING STONE highlighted Gaga’s creative evolution, writing that she “didn’t just revisit [Coachella]—she expanded it, sharpened it, sprinkled in some nostalgia, and fully realized the gothic dream she had only just introduced.” VARIETY called the show a “breathless, finely-tuned spectacular,” and “a welcome reminder of her many, many talents,” while BILLBOARD hailed the show as “a theatrical, electric and delicious live affair,” emphasizing the charged performances of MAYHEM’s standout tracks and past dancefloor staples.

The sold-out tour celebrates Gaga’s eighth studio album, MAYHEM, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200—Gaga’s seventh consecutive No. 1 solo album—and remained a dominant global force, topping the Dance/Electronic Albums chart for 17 weeks, spending 12 weeks in the Top 20, and holding a Top 10 spot on the Pop Albums chart for 15 consecutive weeks. The album has since been Certified Platinum by the RIAA.

Her record-breaking collaboration with Bruno Mars, “Die With a Smile,” further cemented the album’s impact. It spent 18 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, hit No. 1 on the Hot 100 for five weeks, and broke Spotify records as the fastest song to surpass both 1 billion (96 days) and 2 billion (200 days) streams.

The MAYHEM Ball follows Gaga’s headlining performances at Coachella and a landmark series of international shows, including stadium dates in Mexico City and Singapore. In Rio de Janeiro, her free show at Copacabana Beach drew an estimated 2.5 million fans—setting a new record for the highest attended concert by a female artist in history.

The tour continues tomorrow with the first of three sold-out shows at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, followed by a three-night run in Chicago to wrap the first North American leg. Gaga then heads overseas, launching the UK/Europe leg on Monday, September 29 with four nights at The O2 in London before continuing across the region. She’ll close out the year in Australia and begin 2026 with six shows in Japan this January.
