'So iconic of her!': Fans elated as Lana Del Ray announces her first-ever show at Boston's Fenway Park
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: It is certainly a good time to be a Lana Del Ray fan in Boston as the pop star will be performing in the 'Beantown' in June this year.
On Monday, May 6, the 'Summertime Sadness' singer announced her first-ever headlining stadium performance at Fenway Park in Boston set for Thursday, June 20, and billed as "one very special night."
Tickets for the show first become available through an artist presale at 10 am local time on Wednesday, May 8, before the general on-sale kicks off at 10 am local time on Friday, May 10.
The announcement comes shortly after the 38-year-old headlined both weekends of Coachella last month, during which Billie Eilish and Camila Cabello joined her as surprise special guests.

Since then, the 'A&W' musician told the outlet she has received offers to return to TV but only accepted one, singing 'Let Me Love You Like a Woman' from her 'Chemtrails Over the Country Club' album on 'The Tonight Show' in 2020 with no audience.
"Maybe [performing on TV is] something else I’ll grow into more, like touring. And don’t get me wrong. I toured for nine years of my life. It was nonstop. It was tough. But you know in your heart when it’s the right time. And it’s never been the right time," Del Rey told the outlet.
"Maybe now, even if I didn’t feel confident, I would do it anyway," she added, before seeming to hint that the SNL debacle harmed her courage: "But there was a reason not to feel confident."

Lana Del Rey has formed a more positive relationship with touring now
Del Rey has formed a more positive relationship with touring, and she opened up to the outlet about preparing for her recent shows.
"I get nervous. [But] this is a totally different tour," she said. "The stage production is bigger. There are more people on that stage with me, so I’m more comfortable. But even if it was just a one-off show and it was just me in the spotlight, I’d be much more equipped now."
Del Rey continued, "I have experience. I’ve toured just off of YouTube [music] since before I had an album. But right now, I’m excited. I don’t feel nervous to tour."
