Canadian fans of Bruno Mars are in for a treat as the global superstar significantly expands his upcoming Romantic Tour with multiple new concert dates in two major cities. Driven by what promoters are calling unprecedented demand, Mars has added a fifth show in Toronto and a fourth in Vancouver, setting new venue records in the process.
Record-Breaking Ticket Sales Prompt Expansion
The decision to add more dates comes on the heels of a historic ticket sales event. The tour's initial on-sale week resulted in the largest single-day ticket sales in Live Nation history across North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom. Furthermore, it set a new Ticketmaster global record, with a staggering 2.1 million tickets sold worldwide in just one day. This overwhelming response prompted the addition of 34 new dates to the singer's first-ever full stadium tour, which marks his return to headlining after nearly a decade since the 24K Magic World Tour.
New Canadian Tour Dates and Venue Records
The updated schedule now includes a significant increase in Canadian stops. Originally, Mars was set to perform two nights at Toronto's Rogers Stadium and one at Vancouver's B.C. Place.
The revised itinerary is much more extensive:
- Toronto: Concerts are now scheduled for May 22, 23, 27, 28, and 30 at Rogers Stadium. This achievement gives Bruno Mars the all-time record for the most performances by any artist at the venue, which opened just last summer.
- Vancouver: Shows are planned for October 14, 16, 17, and 20 at B.C. Place. This also sets a new record for the most shows on a single tour at that stadium.
For context, when Taylor Swift performed in Toronto in 2024, she held six dates at the Rogers Centre.
How to Get Tickets for the Added Shows
Tickets for the newly announced concert dates will become available to the public on Monday at 12 p.m. local time. Fans are directed to purchase tickets through the official artist website at brunomars.com. Given the record-breaking demand witnessed during the first sales wave, tickets for these additional shows are expected to move quickly.
The tour supports Mars's long-awaited fourth solo album, titled The Romantic, which is scheduled for release on February 27. The Canadian date additions solidify the tour's massive scale and highlight the enduring popularity of the multiple Grammy Award-winning artist among music lovers in Canada.
