The great popstar Madonna comes back to Italy, touring after her latest album “Hard Candy.”
The single Italian date is set for the 6th of September at the Olympic Stadium of Rome.
During 2000, Madonna Luis Veronica Ciccone was recognized as the most successful female artist of all times by Guinnes World Records, with an estimated worth of about $ 400 million. Since that moment Madonna’s career has always been on the rise. After her new album “Hard Candy“, a number one record according to charts around the world, Madonna will begin the Sweet & Sticky tour 2008. The long-awaited tour will start on the 23rd of August from Cardiff (Wales) and it will reach Rome on the 6th of September, after visiting some of the most important European cities.
The show will create a new musical and set design standard. We are all ready to dance on the notes of the new hits like “4 minutes” or “Give it to me“, but we would also like to sing the old hits of one of the greatest icons of pop music. The tickets for the concert are available online and they are much in demand!
The U.S. singer is ready to amaze her fans throughout the world. If the previous “Confessions Tour” was shocked by the showing of “Live To Hell,” in which Madonna sang tied to a cross, what will she present during her new shows? You will discover it by participating to this unique musical event: this will also be a great opportunity to visit the beautiful city of Rome.
You can enjoy the concert and, at the same time, have the opportunity of a pleasant holiday in Rome in September: you will find a warm, lovely climate to visit the city and its surroundings. We would then suggest to book in one of the Groupe Valadier Hotels, the Zone Hotel.
