A few days after JoJo Siwa debuted a new look at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, the young star announced her upcoming tour. On Monday, March 24, JoJo revealed her JoJo Siwa North American Tour, which she promises will be filled with "intimate nights of live performances, DJ sets, and immersive party audience participation."

The 21-year-old Nickelodeon star took to her Instagram to share the announcement, captioning the post as follows:

"JoJo Siwa LIVE I'M! GOING! BACK! ON! TOUR! Get ready for a Live Concert ft. New Songs, Current Songs, AND My Kids Songs, a GAYPOP Dj Set, & an immersive party…. ALL IN THE SAME NIGHT. SEE YOU SOON AT JOJO SIWA LIVE BABBBBYYYYY!!!!"

While fans expressed excitement about the Dance Mums alumnae visiting their cities, others have mixed reactions to the star's ticket packages. The pop singer unveiled a diverse array of ticket options, including a general admission ticket for $67, a VIP meet-and-greet ticket for $236, an Ultimate VIP package for $413.60, and a Dream Guest VIP package for $944.60. The Dream Package offers an "exclusive invitation to JoJo's live show setup before Q&A and soundcheck" and even allows fans to "help JoJo assemble the show with song selection input."

In an exclusive interview with Access Hollywood, JoJo Siwa described her premium ticket package.

"You are actually going to get to come during while we're loading in the show, and you're gonna get to kind of help us set it up and make sure things are right and test out the drum with me or the DJ booth with me."

@people on X, formerly Twitter, shared the announcement of the Dream Guest VIP packages with the caption:

"JoJo Siwa Is Selling VIP Tour Tickets for over $900 Where Fans Can 'Help' Her Crew Set Up for Concerts."

The post garnered several reactions as netizens took to the comments section to give mixed opinions on the announcement.

@caredowdd commented.

"This is so bizarre."

Similar comments echoed this sentiment as more netizens commented on the absurdity of the ticket's package.

"What in the what!? She's clearly not selling tickets so now she's…. Asking fans to set up her shows .. again, WHAT," @andrew_r_a_ commented.
"This feels like a $900 health and safety risk experience," @jelevision stated.
"Are there actually people who want to see her in concert, much less pay $900 to work it?" @awayigo added.

Many netizens didn't appreciate the premium package.

"Yall better not go do physical labor for this girl AND pay her to do it.....that’s nutty. Who guides these narcissistic people?!" @dont_be_common replied.
"She’s so unhinged but some idiot will pay for this," @mmdisney200 tweeted.
"I would pay NOT to see JoJo!" @taytaytayyay29 commented.

"Nobody reads articles these days bc it sounds cool to me," @spaceandust tweeted.
"Convince me right now not to buy pit tickets for JoJo Siwa," @odetoiliwys stated.
