[13] Alec Ellin, CEO of Laylo, revealed via his social media that it "drove the single most site traffic we've ever seen at once" and "hundreds of thousands of fans" signed up within the first hour of the announcement.

The North American leg includes her headlining slots at the Rolling Loud California and Dreamville festivals in March and April 2024.

On February 8, 2024, Monica announced on The Jennifer Hudson Show that she would serve as the opening act on the North American leg of the tour.

[38][40] On May 31, Dutch concert organizer and promoter Mojo announced that the tour's second Amsterdam show—scheduled for June 2—had been canceled "due to the events of [the previous week]".

[41] On July 7, 2024, hours prior to her Saga Festival slot in Bucharest, Minaj announced its cancellation after having "been advised by [her security team] [not to travel to the city] due to safety concerns regarding protests in the area".

[44][45] On August 16, Minaj announced rappers Tyga, Bia, and Skillibeng as the supporting acts for the second US leg of the tour, subtitled "Gag City Reloaded".

[46] Minaj also debuted music from the third and final deluxe version of Pink Friday 2, titled The Hiatus, released on December 13, 2024,[47] which was originally announced as Gag City Reloaded, during the trek.

[49] Shawn Grant of The Source highlighted that "Minaj mesmerized over 25,000 fans at the Oakland Arena, setting a new record as the venue's second-highest-grossing single night by a hip-hop artist.

Mathalone described that where the album truly delivers is "live stage with the incredible performance and production value" and that despite some hiccups, "Pink Friday 2, and all its special guests, are well worth the trouble.

You could not find a single silent person when she claimed her destiny on "Moment 4 Life", and later concluded that "[Nicki] has an undeniable love for her fans and a knack for putting on a fantastic concert".

[53] Evening Standard's Emma Loffhagen reviewed Minaj's London tour stop at The O2 Arena, sharing that when the show started, "[Nicki] was the slick image of confident professionalism".

Loffhagen also stated that, "At times, the energy in the almost two-and-half hour show did sag slightly – some of the deeper and slower cuts felt a little lackluster in their delivery", and included the fact that "a whopping eight costume (and wig) changes to accommodate Minaj's famous alter egos interrupted the flow a little".

Quilantan concluded that despite the late start "[Nicki] proved without a doubt last night at [American Airlines Center] that pop culture absolutely needs entertainers like her.
