Ed Masley from '']'', who was at the first show of the tour which took place in Phoenix, wrote that "the whole thing was brilliantly staged, with bright colors, interpretive dancing and plenty of high-flying spectacle.

The Beautiful Trauma Tour is the current seventh concert tour by American singer Pink, in support of her seventh studio album, Beautiful Trauma (2017). The tour began in Phoenix on March 1, 2018, and is scheduled to end on September 8, 2018, in Auckland.
Development
After the end of the successful The Truth About Love Tour (which was the third best-selling tour of 2013 with $147.9 million in ticket revenue) and the release of the album rose ave. with Canadian singer-songwriter Dallas Green under the name You+Me, Pink took a break. However, during this time, she released some songs, including "Today's the Day" on September 10, 2015, used as a theme song for season 13 of The Ellen DeGeneres Show and "Just like Fire" on April 15, 2016, for the soundtrack to the 2016 film Alice Through the Looking Glass.
On August 10, 2017, the lead single "What About Us" was released. On October 4, 2017, Pink announced she would release an Apple Music documentary about the recording of her anticipated seventh studio album Beautiful Trauma, later released on October 13. The following day, she announced the tour, revealing tour dates in North America. Originally, the singer has planned to play 40 shows, but due to high demand, second dates in Chicago, Toronto, New York City, Boston, Washington, D.C., Houston, Dallas and Oakland were later added. On October 9, 2017, she announced 17 dates in Australia and New Zealand. However, due to overwhelming demand, new shows were added, bringing the total number to 40 shows in Oceania.
