Appearing live on Sunrise on Wednesday, Perry said: “I am super keen to announce The Lifetimes tour, and I’m rolling out dates first in Australia.

“It’s been a long time, but I feel like I’m totally ready for it. It’s a high energy sing-along with all the songs that everybody knows and more.”

Telstra Plus pre-sale tickets for Perry’s concert tour start on Friday, September 27; Snaffle pre-sale tickets begin on Tuesday, October 1, 9am, local time; and tickets go on sale to the general public on October 4, 10am.

Excitedly speaking about the new tour, Perry said fans loved her hit, 2010 mega-hit Firework — which she said usually gets the biggest response from the crowd.

“Everybody loves it. Doesn’t matter who you are, how young, how mature, everyone is singing along to that song,” she said.

“That’s what I typically end my show with. The celebratory moment of life.”

The superstar will next play the MCG for the AFL grand final on Saturday, fronting a sellout crowd of 100,000 people.

The American singer went on to talk about how she still gets butterflies before hitting the stage.

“I usually do a lot of prep (before getting on stage). So I don’t get nerves. I definitely get butterflies. Especially during this era where everything has a bit of butterflies around it. There will definitely be butterflies in the arenas.”
