Fans of the teenage band the Jonas Brothers purchased a whooping 800,000 tickets for their upcoming world tour. In response to the demand, the group immediately rolled out second shows in Los Angeles, Chicago and Philadelphia, as well as Vancouver, British Columbia.
The boy band has sold-out arena shows in major cities including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Houston, Pittsburgh, Edmonton, New Orleans and Atlanta.
"Ticket sales for this tour have been phenomenal," Jason Garner, Chief Executive Officer of Global Music for Live Nation, said in a statement, according to pollstar.com.
"The band has already sold out arena dates in 13 major cities, including Madrid, London and Paris, and with additional dates going on sale in Mexico and South America and Europe in April, it's clear to us that Jonas Brothers are a true global touring powerhouse."
American Idol winner and platinum-selling artist Jordin Sparks and rising stars Honor Society will be along for the fun as special guests.
Each show will include a massive, 140-foot stage centered in the arena, allowing for better views throughout the venue, the band revealed on the Jonas Brothers' YouTube channel.
"The Jonas Brothers World Tour 2009" kicks off June 20 in Dallas and will touch down at arenas and stadiums across North America through an Aug. 31 finale in Ottawa, Ontario.
The Jonas Brothers' newest album, "Lines, Vines and Trying Times", is set for a June 15 release.
