The 2013 North American Tour was a co-headlining concert tour by American recording artists Pitbull and Kesha. The tour promoted both Pitbull's album, ''Global Warming'' and Kesha's album, ''Warrior'', which were both released in the November of 2012. Both Kesha and Pitbull officially announced the trek around North America on Friday, March 22, 2013. Although the tour's official name is the North American Tour, Pitbull and Kesha announced on August 5, 2013 that they are bringing the tour to Australia in late October and early November. The tour started on May 23, 2013 in Boston, Massachusetts at the Comcast Center and came to a close on June 26, 2013 in Tampa, Florida at the Live Nation Amphitheatre. ==Background and development== Back in 2009, Kesha collaborated with Pitbull on a song called "Girls" which featured on his album ''Rebelution''. The two also paired up in 2009 for a remix of Kesha's first single, "Tik Tok". Since then both artists have released multiple albums including Pitbull's ''Global Warming'' and Kesha's ''Warrior'' that have each hit the top ten of ''Billboard's Top 200''. Pitbull and Kesha each have achieved many top ten hits on ''Billboard's Hot 100'' including each of their Smash Hit singles "Feel This Moment" (Pitbull) and "Die Young" (Kesha). Although the tour was officially announced on March 22, 2013, Kesha and Pitbull hinted at the joint tour on March 21, 2013 via Twitter. The conversation started when Pitbull tweeted to Kesha about the upcoming Kids Choice Awards, which they were both performing at, but separately. Pitbull asked "Oye Mamita @keshasuxx ! u ready 2 party at the #kidschoiceawards this weekend?" Then Kesha responded by saying, "born ready @Pitbull ...are u sure you can you handle this wild child?" After exchanging a couple more tweets about having a party on the dance floor and having a "pants off dance off", the conversation escalated when Pitbull asked Kesha, ".@keshasuxx Well what's going on this summer? Maybe we should hang out… and party". Kesha then responded by saying, "you know me and my #Animals would love that @Pitbull", which hinted at the tour, which was announced the next day.〔〔 Members of both Kesha's and Pitbull's fanclubs got a first chance at purchasing tickets for the tour on March 27, 2013, before the general public got a chance to purchase the tickets on March 29, 2013.〔〔 Various local top 40 radio stations have been giving tickets away to promote the tour. MTV has also been promoting the tour due to the fact that Kesha's reality show, ''My Crazy Beautiful Life'', is being aired on the broadcasting station as its first season. To promote the tour even more, the pair teamed up for a remix of Kesha's latest single, "Crazy Kids". On August 5, 2013 the duo announced that they would take the tour to Australia in late October and early November.〔 The pre-sale for the tickets began on August 7, 2013 and ended on August 11, 2013, unless the pre-sale tickets sold out before then.〔〔 The tickets for the pre-sale were only available to Visa Credit, Debit and Prepaid cardholders.
