She announced the European shows on Dec. 7 in a hand-written whiteboard message posted to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. At that point fans in the U.S. and Canada knew Minaj would also be coming to North America, but only had details about her Rolling Loud California performance in Los Angeles on March 17.

Presale tickets for the tour will be available on Dec. 11 in Europe and Dec. 12 in North America. They will be on sale for the general public starting Dec. 15.

The singer will begin in Oakland on March 1 and finish the trip in Berlin on June 7.

Minaj called the upcoming concerts the "#GagCity Tour" in a tweet on Dec. 11. This was a reference to the elaborate fantasy world her fans crafted using artificial intelligence in the days leading up to the new album's release. The fictional city includes cotton candy-colored theme parks, glowing pink skylines and retail outlets from brands like KFC, Urban Decay and Chanel.

Barbz, as the singer's fandom is known, started the meme after Minaj posted an innocuous tweet about a feature on Pink Friday 2. The record is packed with guest appearances including everyone from Drake and Lil Uzi Vert to J. Cole and Tasha Cobbs Leonard.

Minaj announced the European concerts in a tweet on Dec. 7, but the North American dates weren't confirmed until Dec. 11.

Pink Friday 2 is the first studio album Minaj has released since her 2018 LP Queen. It's a sequel to her first record Pink Friday, which made it to the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200. The earlier album's big single "Super Bass" helped make Minaj a household name. Since then, she's had several more No. 1 tracks including "Say So," "Anaconda" and "Super Freaky Girl."

Minaj will also be performing at Power 96.1's Jingle Ball event in Atlanta on Dec. 14.
