Kicking off the first night of the tour with nothing short of a dance party; with support from Emlyn opening the night in exceptional style! Belting out hit after hit about female rage and empowerment, she really filled the room with an energetic buzz ready for Ava Max to take the stage. Her style complimented that of Ava Max so much that there couldn’t have been a more perfect support act. 

Ava Max took to the stage in a wild celebration of love, freedom, heartbreak, courage and unity. Her staging was spectacular, with a huge glittery diamond taking centre stage; very fitting for her new album “Diamonds & Dancefloors”. Her entire performance was filled with glitz and sparkle, wearing a blue bejewelled bodysuit and matching skirt; and glittering lights as her backdrop. The night was hit after hit after hit, no matter the song the crowd knew every single word. Dancers raised the energy in the room, getting the crowd jumping and dancing all night long as she performed her smash hits such as “My Head and My Heart”, “Kings & Queens”, “Sweet but Psycho” and “Motto”. She also performed an emotional number “One of Us”, where the crowd helped her along; they were behind her every step of the way. Fitting with the diamond theme of the night; Ava Max certainly shined as bright as a diamond on the stage; there is no doubt her fans will want her back performing in the UK soon!
