Pink opened the UK/European leg of her smash Beautiful Trauma world tour in the Netherlands on Tuesday, playing to a sell-out crowd of 50,000 at Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam.
The 27 European stadium dates follow a successful second North American leg of the tour, which has been on the road since March 2018. In April, promoter Live Nation revealed the tour has sold 2.9 million tickets globally since then; the current European leg has moved more than 1.2m.

The Beautiful Trauma world tour was the highest grossing in the US in March, which came on the back of broken records in Australia and New Zealand, where Pink played 42 sold-out shows.
When it ends at the US grand prix, at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, on 2 November, the tour will have played 157 shows in 18 countries.
Beautiful Trauma, the fourth highest-grossing tour worldwide in 2018, was last year named the most anticipated UK tour of 2019.
