The 2012 Madonna tour schedule has the artist starting out the tour in Europe beginning May 29 and hitting the US in August. It looks the tour will hit only the big cities with room to add additional nights if the first concerts sell out fast enough. Madonna tickets are already on sale on the secondary market and many of the concerts had presales this week.

Madonna has a new album out, MDNA, and she will be performing new songs as well as hits from her decades long career. After the Super Bowl  half time performance Madonna fans have an idea of what to expect this time around and they’re looking forward to a high energy show. Yankee Stadium is currently the only stadium show on the tour list so far but others have been rumored, but not confirmed.

Madonna concert tickets are on sale now at PreferredSeat.com and the usual outlets.

The web is buzzing with the reported 2012 Madonna tour schedule that is showing up on the internet today after a spectacular performance at the Super Bowl halftime show. The tour dates are coming from a copy of a November 2011 announcement from LiveNation and has the singer kicking off her concert tour in New Zealand in late March. The US portion of the Madonna concert tour would begin with a July 13 date at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

None of the tour dates have been confirmed and other Madonna tour schedules are showing up as well so take it all with a grain of salt until the official 2012 Madonna tour dates are released.

More information should be released in the coming weeks including when tickets for Madonna go on sale to the general public. Fans can find Madonna tickets in the front rows when tickets go on sale from Preferred Seating Tickets.

The 2012 Coldplay tour schedule will take Chris Martin and the band across the US and Canada beginning with a tour stop at the Rexall Place in Alberta, Canada and running through August 11 with a final stop at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, MN.
