Sabrina Carpenter's "Short n' Sweet Tour" is nearing its end, with the final six shows scheduled across California and Arizona this November. The initial ticket sales sold out almost immediately in June, showcasing the immense popularity of the pop sensation. Despite the sell-out, tickets are still available on secondary market platforms like Vivid Seats and StubHub, indicating a strong demand for live performances.
Carpenter, known for her catchy hits like "Taste" and "Espresso," has made significant strides in her career this year. Her album "Short n' Sweet" has seen multiple singles climb the Billboard Hot 100, further solidifying her status as a leading figure in pop music. Her performances on "Saturday Night Live" and at the "MTV Video Music Awards" have also contributed to her rising profile, along with her role as an opener for Taylor Swift during the record-breaking "Eras Tour."
In another highlight, the super krewe of Endymion has announced that pop superstar Katy Perry will headline their Extravaganza on March 1, 2025. This marks the first return to their traditional parade route since 2019, with the event set to take place in the Caesar's Superdome.
Perry is recognized as the biggest-selling female artist in Capitol Records history, having surpassed 100 million certified units with hits like "Firework," "Dark Horse," and "Roar." Joining her will be Grammy-winning band Train, known for their chart-topping singles and impressive streaming numbers, including over one billion streams on Spotify as of 2022.
The 2025 parade theme, "The Secret Teachings of All Ages," promises to feature elaborate floats, including a new float honoring the mascot "Endy," making it a highly anticipated event.
