The tour is closing
Ariana Grande's "Dangerous Woman" tour is about to end. It is the 3rd concert tour in support of her third album which began on February 3, 2017, in Arizona. Earlier this month the tour's venue was in New Zealand's Spark Arena and will push forward to ICC Sydney Theatre, Australia this coming September 8, September 9 before returning to Asia.
In the final week, she will visit again Asia in these three countries: Singapore (September 16), Taiwan (September 19), and Hongkong (September 21), closing the tour at AsiaWorld Expo Arena.
In this "Dangerous Woman" tour, Ariana was able to experience the very meaning of "danger" in her Manchester tour in May after Salman Abedi exploded the area with a suicide bomb. Because of the incident, twenty-two people died including seven children and 116 individuals were injured.
As reported, the singer held a fund raising "One Love Manchester" concert on June 4 to help the victims together with other artists such as Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Chris Martin, Pharrell Willaims, Usher and Miley Cyrus.
Through the concert with proceeds of over 3 million dollars and from the remarkable generosity and efforts of the other celebrities, Manchester City Council and of the people around the globe, each of the 22 grieving families received 324,000 dollars.
And because of her "magnificent response" to the tragedy, Ariana Grande was awarded by the City of Manchester with its newly-created Honorary Citizen award.
