What is a Padam Padam VIP Package? All the ticket tiers of Kylie’s upcoming Tension tour explained
KYLIE Minogue lit up Hyde Park with her summer show in 2024, after being carried onto the stage in 6in stilettos by actors Andrew Scott and Jonathan Bailey.
Fear not Kyle fans who missed out on the pint-sized prima donna’s performance — the stunning songstress is hitting the road for a massive worldwide tour, which reaches our shores in May 2025.
She is scheduled play 11 UK arena dates across the nation — including Newcastle, Sheffield, Nottingham and London.
The tour includes three dates at London’s famous 20,000 capacity O2 Arena.
It is the singer’s first tour since her 2019 Golden Tour — and her biggest since 2011.
Kylie said: “I am beyond excited to announce the Tension Tour 2025.
“I can’t wait to share beautiful and wild moments with fans all over the world, celebrating the Tension era and more.
“It’s been an exhilarating ride so far and now, get ready for your close up because I will be calling Lights, Camera, Action … and there will be a whole lot of Padaming!”
