Released today : https://www.blurb.co.uk/b/12150092-madonna-the-celebration-tour 440 pages of photos covering 81 shows from Madonna’s Celebration Tour. Hundreds of copies were sold on presale so guess lots of you already grabbed one! I don’t make a penny of profit on these - the price point is set by Blurb as these are high end 10x8 print on demand books - loads of you have bought my books since Sticky & Sweet and know the drill - the price you pay is to Blurb for their production. My photos are provided for free. ❤️ Photos from the 50 shows I attended supplement by photos from @dave_in_thebay @madangeluk @nickworld @whosthatgirl75 and @stereoshaun from the shows I was too sick to attend. This is the best photobook I’ve produced since I started making these magazines then books to commemorate Madonnas tours in 2001. As a lifelong harsh self critic, It’s possibly the first thing I’ve produced and sat back and thought “that’s good”. The people who’ve received prerelease copies seem to agree! It’s doubly special for me as I was hospitalised during December and fearful for my life, and had to work harder than I’ve worked for anything in my life to get back on the tour at the end of February whilst still undergoing treatment - finishing what I set out to do was one of the driving forces for my recovery. If you choose to buy a book - I hope you love it! Previews on my insta @NSPh0t0s and also Madonna Fan Party socials and I’m sure you’ve seen the previews on the Tribe social media pages too.

My 5th Madonna Tour photobook gets released next week - all the details are on Tribe. 440 pages covering the 50 shows I attended supplemented with photos from the 31 I didn't by my friends who were there. Previews on my insta @NSPh0t0s plus Jack has been posting them on @MadonnaFanParty too. I dont make a penny profit on these - the cost is purely for the production of the book by Blurb who are the only company who ship worldwide and can manage 400+ pages! Hope of interest to some of you https://news.madonnatribe.com/en/2024/the-celebration-tour-the-5th-madonna-photobook-by-neil-symons/

A selection of my photos are on my instagram (@NSPh0t0s) - as usual, I'll publish a tour photo book at cost price once ive finished putting it together! I know a lot of you have previously bought my S&S/MDNA/Rebel Heart books and I can promise this one (covering 65+ of the 80 shows) will be the best yet. I dont make a penny on the books - I publish via Blurb and add zero to the cost price.

To confirm (after speaking at length with the team & crew): All Mexico and LA shows were filmed with handhelds, primarily crowd shots. Mexico shows 3 4 and 5 were the primary shows filmed for use during the concert film. Main Hard Cam was centre based on show 3, stage right on show 4 (it was a HUGE crane cam) and stage left on show 5. It almost hit the ceiling during Live To Tell it extended so high! Cameras were also based in the Soundfactory Pit on Show 5. There were spider cams and drone cams at shows 4 and 5.

LA was filmed by roving cameras including a lot of crowd shots to be used in the tour film.

Madonna referred to one of the fans who used to do that as a "rat" in Austin.

They have. In completely the wrong place. And there’s already a queue for the queue. grabs popcorn.

The Brazilian WhatsApp Group as being discussed on Icon.

Part of me wants to join the Brazilian WhatsApp group that the Brazilians on Icon have started to manage the queue out of morbid curiosity. This will make the European Sharpie Fans look like nursery school children.

You wont need to fight at all. You can get front row in the pit easily as they're very roomy and people move around. Relax. If you go in with a confrontational mindset you will stress yourself out.

I have 1 spare Iconic Pit packages (Pit 1) for both Dallas nights - if anyone needs will sell for $200 under face value - ($800 each) if youre interested and ready to pay message me on insta (@NSPh0t0s) Theres no resale allowed for Dallas on TM hence why pit is unavailable for so long.

The staff told us it was only open Saturday and Sunday. They only had a couple of pens which went to the first girl through the door. They had tons of candles and lithograph sets. They also had the metal cross embossed key chains if you asked for them which weren't on the on-screen merch list.. They had masses of each of the 4 different badge sets. They had a selection of rosaries but a lot of people who bought one got home to find that rather than say LOS ANGELES they said Washington, St Paul etc.

He's been at all the US shows ive attended, usually in the Friends & Family lounge then coming out to the show to escort guests to their seats.

I’ve got 1 spare Pit ticket (iconic VIP package) for Dallas Night 1 and 1 spare Pit (iconic VIP) for Dallas night 2. Both are Human Nature / Crazy For You / Erotica / Bitch I’m Madonna / Papa Don’t Preach Blond Ambition bed side. face value is $1000, will sell for $700 each.
