I am going on 23rd of May in Sheffield.

Does anyone know what time she comes on stage? How long does the concert last for?

If anyone does know, could you please post down below.

Thanks.

I am so looking forward to it!

When I say what time does she come on stage, I mean when SHE starts and not ICONA POP!

Hi. I have not been to one of her shows but from other concerts that I have been to the main band/artist usually start their show at around 9pm. It might be a better idea to ask this question on Twitter. I think that you may get a more solid response from people who have been to this tour.

I really wish that I has tickets. I'm a big fan. I've been listening to Prism a lot lately.

That is a late finish. What time does it finish before encore?

I think that 11pm is pretty standard.

I hope that you enjoy the show.

Saw her last night and oh my goodness this tour is crazy cool the amount going on in it is insane, got to be honest wasn't expecting it to be half as good as it actually was plus great atmosphere for midweek. There was meant to be a dj between icona pop but they must have overrun as there was no dj , she came on at 9 finished at 11 and pretty much sang all her releases plus international smile. This is how we do and walking on air are real highlights, I still get fustrated by people leaving before the encore and filming the entire things on their phones but it was overall amazing

Totally agree! People leaving early makes me so mad I find it quite rude, and hate having to squeeze in so they can walk past. I also refuse to take any photos or videos. Looking through a phone screen means you are missing what's going on onstage.

i know people had to leave due to the last train to birmingham being 10:40, you would think considering the LG and the train are linked together they would extend train times for the concerts

Has anyone who has been to the concert so far been in the Reflection Section?

Going on Saturday in Glasgow and was wondering the best place to stand.

I've missed several encores because of the ridiculous train times at the Birmingham Station. It's a shame as I don't want to miss the encore, considering I've paid £30+ to go and see the artist but, equally, I don't want to be homeless for the night!

So did I, great show. She came on at about 9.05-9.10, didn't she? Finished exactly two hours later? I heard she finished at about 11.35 in Nottingham the other night-rather late, don't you think, well past most of her fanbases' bedtimes! Enjoy the show, OP-it's a visual spectacular, trust me!

The Hydro in Glasgow is the same. It has a station dedicated to the arena but the last train to the city centre is at 11:10. Most shows at The Hydro don't finish until 11. And then there's massive queues for the train. Unless you leave the show early, you're unlikely to make the train. We now get ready to leave pre-encore and leave as the song is ending to make it out. Considering ScotRail are one of the main sponsors of the arena, it's an absolute joke!

Saw her at the LG and it was one of the best performance gigs I've seen for a long long time (and that includes Lady GaGa), The money you pay for the ticket is definitely all up on (and around and above) the stage. Again don't try and continually film Katy because you will miss so much that is going on around her.

The encore was two songs though there was a short gap between the two, probably just to pump the crowd up again.

If you can get near the end of the stage that stretches out into the crowd, which is where the reflection section will be, Katy and assorted dancers use it a lot so you will get some great views.

The last train to Birmingham wasn't 10:40.

I went to see her, stopped till the end of the show and caught the 11.36 train (and there was another that followed about 10 minutes later).

It was a great show.

So annoyed the last train from Manchester Victoria on a Saturday night is at 22:54 so I'm going to have to leave early next week.

Check with the venue, Friday gigs sometimes start and finish earlier, although mainly in venues where there is a club night afterwards

I was surprised how long she was on for . I wouldn't have fancied being there for any longer past 11 though, as for the young fans they would be way past there bed time

Went to see her last week and thought she was bloody fantastic! I wasn't a huge fan before tbh but she completely won me over. She made it fun, but kept it clean for the kids with no swearing or lewd comments, and her voice was actually very good. It's bright, energetic and loud. Well worth the money.

International Smile and Firework were my two favourites if I had to pick out some best bits. Her acoustic set was very touching too.

Good job Katy!

It is a shame she couldn't be on at say 8pm so that people who have to use public transport could see the concert in full

Most shows start at 9pm but I do understand the frustration. When I went to a show in September we only just made the final train back from London and we stayed for the encore.

Enjoy the show!

She starts at 8.45 and ends between 10.45 and 11.00.
