Melbourne Has Biggest Audience For Pink For Any City In The World

During this visit, the US singer played to a total of 250,000 fans, more so than any other city in Australia that the The Truth About Love tour visited.

Michael Coppel, president and CEO of Live Nation Australia, said that since playing her first show on April 30, 2004 at the Rod Laver, she has played 42 shows there and shifted over 500,000 tickets.

“Without doubt, Melbourne now provides the biggest audience for Pink in any city worldwide,” he declared.

In honour of the record-breaking run at the Rod Laver, its operator Melbourne and Olympic Parks unveiled a Hollywood-style star at the top of the steps to the main entry doors, which will be framed by Pink and daughter Willow’s hand prints cast in bronze.

Inside the Arena, door number 18 has been permanently painted pink, complemented by a signed plaque.

Backstage, another Pink pole stands alongside the one from her previous record-breaking Funhouse tour.  And as she left her dressing room for the last time this week, Pink signed a plaque located on a wall leading to the stage.
