Taipei: The three upcoming concerts in Taipei by Taiwanese pop diva Jolin Tsai are all sold out, with the tickets snapped up shortly after they went on sale at noon Sunday, according to her talent agency.
According to Focus Taiwan, some 940,000 fans were vying for a total of 120,000 tickets for the three concerts at Taipei Dome on Dec. 30, 31, and Jan. 1, Eternal Music Production Co., Ltd. said in a statement Sunday. Many fans who did not manage to get tickets have been asking for extra shows, the company said, adding that it was grateful for the support but had no immediate plans to organize additional concerts in Taipei for Tsai.
The company emphasized their commitment to preparing and perfecting all aspects of the production for these performances to meet everyone's expectations. The three Taipei concerts are part of Tsai's "Jolin Pleasure" world tour, which debuts with her first-ever performance at Taipei Dome on Dec. 30.
In a recent press interview, Tsai revealed she drew inspiration for her concerts from the famous triptych oil painting "The Garden of Earthly Delights" by Dutch artist Hieronymus Bosch. She described the painting as offering a god's-eye view of different people's lives, which resonated with the theme of her new album "Pleasure."
