Madonna 2012 world tour dates announced
Legendary pop icon Madonna announced the dates for a new 2012 world tour on Tuesday. The Madonna 2012 tour will roam through the Middle East, Europe and North America before heading below the border for dates in South America and Australia. The tour will launch in Tel Aviv, Israel on May 29th in support of Madonna’s new album, MDNA.
Now is the perfect time for Madonna to take advantage of the heavy public and press attention she garnered from her over-the-top, extravagant Super Bowl halftime show. Whether you loved it or hated it, the Madonna halftime show was truly a spectacle to behold and has all eyes once again riveted to the Material Girl.
The new Madonna album, MDNA, will launch online and in stores on March 26. The first stop on the Madonna 2012 world tour is set for three days later in Tel Aviv. Madonna will swing through several other cities in the Middle East before heading to Europe for a slew of dates from Milan to Moscow. The Madonna 2012 world tour will land in North America on August 28 in Philadelphia, PN at the Wells Fargo Center.
So far, dates through November 17th in Atlanta have been announced and you can find them below. Further dates and locations for the South American and Australian legs of the tour will follow later. Tickets for many of the earlier dates will go on sale over the next few weeks.

Yes, Mary Jane, the tour dates south of the border will be announced later, but I’m betting there will be dates in Mexico.
She’ll come to Mexico?
