SINGAPORE - It took an even shorter time for Chinese pop singer Joker Xue to sell out his second Singapore concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
Tickets priced from $167 to $377 for the Jan 7 show - which was added after the Jan 6 date sold out on Thursday in two hours - went on sale at 10am on Friday. Concert promoter iMe SG then announced on its Facebook page at 11.18am on Friday that the second batch of tickets were all snapped up.
The Indoor Stadium has a maximum seating capacity of 12,000. Xue last performed here in 2018 at the same venue.
The concerts are part of his Extraterrestrial world tour, which kicked off in 2021 and has stopped at Chinese cities such as Guangzhou, Chengdu and Shanghai. About 60 concerts have been held so far, attracting more than two million fans.
During the show, the 40-year-old performer is expected to transform into a being from an alien planet and is ordered to destroy Earth. On the eve of Earth’s destruction, he is inspired by the beauty of mankind and sacrifices his life to save the planet.
Xue, who released his first album in 2006, is known for hits such as Serious Snow (2006), Ugly (2013) and Actor (2015).
His most recent album, Countless (2022), features the song Turn Waste Into Treasure and You Are Not Alone, a duet with Taiwanese crooner Jeff Chang.
