Not really familiar with her.
Is she really big enough to sell 20k tickets?
Not as big as Taylor Swift, who is the highest-grossing female artist with over USD$1.96 billion in her Eras Tour.
However, Dua Lipa’s previous tour had an average attendance of over 15k per show and many sold-out performances, grossing USD$101.3 million. That’s good for a relatively new artist with only three studio albums.
Dua will also be making stops in Berlin, Germany; Pula, Croatia; and Nîmes, France, in June with completely sold-out shows. She’ll also headline Glastonbury Festival on June 28 and play at the Royal Albert Hall in London this October.

Weird pricing plan.
The blue seats nearest the stage are only the 3rd most expensive. Meanwhile the red and light blue stand seats which are much farther away are 1st and 2nd most expensive.
I guess it’s because the stand seats are tiered so you always get a good view?
Edit: How much were Coldplay tickets?
That’s something being applied across Taiwan. Even classical and jazz gigs at CKS sell front row seats cheaper. It’s very weird.
Just noticed something - why does the poster say Taipei when she’s playing in Taoyuan?
Also just saw a slightly odd-sounding video announcement on Facebook, where she says “Hello Taipei. I can’t wait to come and play in beautiful Taipei.”
It really should be “Hello Taiwan”, but artists aren’t allowed to say that anymore due to China.
Yes, it was labeled as “Taipei” in the promotional material, but she has done this with other cities as well
She had a bad experience at a concert in Shanghai in 2018, when she was just starting out.
Perhaps she’s following her record label’s advice to avoid any negative press

Rain forecast not looking favorable for an outdoor concert in a baseball stadium tomorrow
I went to Dua Lipa’s concert last night, and she is a good performer. She kept saying “Taipei” over and over, which really hyped up the crowd. It was almost two hours of nonstop dancing . By the end, I even saw people standing on their seats to dance
The weather wasn’t too bad—just a little light rain and a chilly breeze, but nothing that ruined the night. The concert wasn’t sold out, but there were still about 20,000 people in the baseball stadium.
That said, the most expensive tickets were NT$7,800, and some of the seats had awful views. In some spots, you couldn’t even see the stage at all
Meanwhile, the NT$2,500 ticket view was actually pretty decent
