Katy Perry is about to make pop history all over again. Fresh from its acclaimed debut at the Tribeca Festival, Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris is heading to cinemas across the globe this September, transforming one of the most ambitious pop tours of the decade into a full‑scale, immersive big‑screen event.
Launching worldwide on Wednesday 2 September 2026, the concert film will screen in 70 countries, including 150 cinemas across the UK, with tickets available from Thursday 30 July at katyperryconcertfilm.com.
Filmed over two sold‑out nights in Paris during Perry’s 2025 Lifetimes Tour, the production pushes far beyond the boundaries of a traditional concert film. Shot using a staggering 60‑camera setup, the film sweeps above, around and through the show, capturing angles and moments even front‑row fans never saw.
The result is a cinematic reimagining of Perry’s most ambitious live show to date, a gravity‑defying, neon‑drenched pop universe built for spectacle.
The film’s 132‑minute runtime is packed with hits from across Perry’s two‑decade career. Expect the full technicolour blast of:
“Teenage Dream”
“California Gurls”
“Dark Horse”
“Roar”
“Firework”
And yes, “The One That Got Away” makes a triumphant return, riding the wave of its 2026 resurgence that pushed it into Spotify’s Global Top 10 and helped Perry reach a new peak of 91 million monthly listeners.
The original tour was a juggernaut. Across 91 shows, 23 countries and five continents, Perry performed to more than one million fans, selling 1,058,950 tickets and generating $134 million in gross sales.
Highlights included:
Six historic shows in China — a rare feat for Western artists
A finale in Abu Dhabi
Charitable donations to the Firework Foundation (US) and Music Venue Trust (UK)
It was a tour built on scale, imagination and heart — and now it’s being preserved in cinematic form.
Producer Daniel E. Catullo III describes the film as “Katy’s love letter to her fans”, capturing the electricity of the live show and the emotional connection Perry has built with her audience over two decades.
Tribeca’s world premiere reportedly turned into a full‑blown celebration, with fans, dancers and Perry herself singing and dancing throughout the screening.
UK fans can catch the film from 2 September at 150 cinemas nationwide, including IMAX screenings for maximum spectacle.
Concert films are having a renaissance — but Perry’s entry stands out. It’s not just a document of a tour; it’s a statement of longevity, cultural impact and pop craftsmanship. For fans, it’s a chance to relive the spectacle. For newcomers, it’s a gateway into one of pop’s most colourful, imaginative worlds.
And for the industry, it’s another reminder that Perry remains one of the defining pop artists of her generation.
