SENTOSA, Singapore — Australian pop star Kylie Minogue announced which venue she will perform in for the Manila stop of "Tension" tour next year.

Concert promoter Live Nation Philippines revealed that the tour will begin in Australia on February 15, right after Valentine's Day, before going to Asia the following month and then the United Kingdom in May.

Asian stops include Tokyo, Bangkok, and Kaohsiung before the Philippine concert in Mall of Asia Arena on March 17.

"I can't wait to share beautiful and wild moments with fans all over the world, celebrating the Tension era and more!" Kylie previously said in a statement.

"It's been an exhilarating ride so far and now, get ready for your close up because I will be calling Lights, Camera, Action… and there will be a whole lot of Padaming!"

This will be Kylie's 16th headlining tour, promoting her album of the same name from last year and its recently released partner entry "Tension II."
