Details are emerging of Madonna's upcoming re-INVENTION tour which will take in Slane festival this August
hotpress.com has learned that this year’s Slane festival is to be headlined by Madonna, who’ll be making her first ever appearance in Ireland.
Although yet to be confirmed, the date of the show is either on the weekend of August 21/22 or 28/29. The determining factor is how many extra nights will be added to her present August 18 stop-off at London’s Earls Court.
The Slane gig is just one of shows that’ll form the European leg of her worldwide re-INVENTION Tour. “Madonna has already started rehearsals and can’t wait to get back on stage to recreate her songs from the earliest days of her career up to the present,” reveals manager Caresse Henry. “There’s no doubt that this tour will be the pinnacle of her long standing and well deserved reputation as one of the most exciting live performers of our time. And, as a special treat to her fans, existing Icon fan club members will have access to tickets prior to the on-sale dates in local markets.”
