Multi-talented American singer, Alecia Beth Moore popularly known as Pink is currently embarking on her 2024 ‘Summer Carnival Tour’ from her ninth studio album, ‘Trustfall’
Born to a nurse and an insurance salesman, the 44-year-old artist adopted her stage name Pink while performing in clubs, a nickname she had for many years. Although various stories explain the origin of her name, many link it to her childhood, where she was teased, and her pants were pulled down, causing her to blush pink with embarrassment. The name stuck due to this incident.
Amidst different speculations, it was noted that the film Reservoir Dogs featured a character named Mr. Pink, known for his witty remarks, adding another layer of meaning to her name.
Beyond her music career, Pink has dabbled in acting and winemaking, purchasing her vineyard in 2013. Her ninth album, “Trustfall,” released in February 2023, includes tracks like “Never Gonna Not Dance Again,” “Trustfall,” “When I Get There,” and “Runaway.”
As she’s currently thrilling her fans and music lovers in the UK, here’s everything you need to know about the tour.
The ‘Summer Carnival Tour’ commenced on June 7, 2023, at the University of Bolton Stadium in Bolton, England, and will conclude at LoanDepot Park on November 23, 2024, in Miami, United States. This tour promotes her ninth studio album, “Trustfall” (2023), and features performances at three prominent European music festivals: Pinkpop Festival, Werchter Boutique, and BST Hyde Park.
Some notable highlights from Pink’s American leg of the tour, as reported by Pollstar Boxoffice, include two sold-out nights at Madison Square Garden in New York on Nov. 4-5, with 29,362 tickets sold and a gross of $6,334,010; a sold-out show at Kaseya Center in Miami, FL, on Nov. 14, with 13,358 tickets sold and $2,733,511 grossed; a sold-out performance at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, NV, on Oct. 7, with 54,693 tickets sold and $8,969,920 grossed; and a sold-out show at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA, with 49,559 tickets sold and $8,104,762 grossed.

The Emmy Award winner kicked off the UK leg in Cardiff, dazzling her audience with hits like ‘Get The Party Started,’ ‘Try,’ and ‘So What.’ She then moved on to London and is scheduled to perform in Liverpool and Glasgow this week. This leg of the tour includes performances at venues she hasn’t visited in several years, providing even more fans with the opportunity to witness her spectacular acrobatics.
During the Australian leg of her Summer Carnival Tour, which concluded in March at Townsville’s Country Bank Stadium, Pink’s 20 stadium shows set a record for the most ever performed by any artist in Australia and New Zealand on a single tour.
Pink also shattered attendance records at Sydney’s Allianz Stadium and Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium.
In Australia, the 44-year-old has become a household name, excelling in every statistical category of the music industry.
Once the Summer Carnival concludes, her total ticket sales in this region will surpass 3.1 million across six tours, making her the top-selling international artist in terms of career ticket sales in Australia and New Zealand, according to Live Nation.

According to Billboard Boxscore, Pink was the highest-grossing act in Oceania during the 2010s, with earnings of approximately $135 million. She even has a ladies’ restroom named after her at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre, where she has repeatedly broken attendance records.
On the recording front, her ninth studio album, Trustfall, debuted at No. 1 on the ARIA Chart in February 2023, marking her seventh album to reach the top spot.
