Madonna The Celebration Tour Setlist in Full 2023: Songs for concert at London The O2 Arena
Madonna's The Celebration Tour is among the year's most eagerly anticipated live shows - here's everything you need to know about the tour as it hits the UK, Europe and North America.
Madonna's The Celebration Tour kicked off at London's The O2 Arena on October 14 2023 as the first of six dates at the venue. Four will take place in October, followed by another two in early December after Madonna has criss-crossed Europe.
The tour was originally due to kick off in Toronto in July, but the singer was forced to postpone its launch after being hospitalised with a "serious bacterial infection".
When the tour was announced in January, it was billed as "Madonna's artistic journey through four decades" and a show that "pays respect to the city of New York where her career in music began". The pop icon said at the time: "I am excited to explore as many songs as possible in hopes to give my fans the show they have been waiting for."
Given that Madonna has 72 UK Top 40 hits to choose from – including 63 UK Top 10s and 13 UK Number 1s – assembling a setlist was no mean feat. Little wonder she has recruited Stuart Price, the co-producer of her chart-topping 2005 album Confessions on a Dance Floor, as part of her musical crew.
With the Celebration Tour now in full swing, here's the setlist in full.

Fantastic show, but she had to cut Sorry, Oh Father and another song because of the technical issues at the start of Open Your Heart, otherwise the show wouldn't have finished by the 11pm curfew.

What is the point in calling this article the 'setlist in full' when you don't actually tell us a single track that we can expect? Just ask the cleaner to write for you, they couldn't do a worse job.
Edit:- Some surprising omissions, equally some surprising inclusions. Would have expected to see Material Girl and Frozen. Masterpiece is easily in my top 5 favourites, it is criminal that it never did better.

and what better way to greet the one and ONLY undisputed Queen of Pop with her very own Royal Standard Flag...
https://metro.co.uk/2023/10/11/madonna-gets-epic-royal-nod-as-celebration-tour-kicks-off-in-london-19645591/
"The Queen of Pop kicks off her Celebration tour at the 02 on Saturday and to mark the 65-year-old’s arrival in the capital the world-famous venue has created a Madonna-themed flag much like the Royal Standard flag.
The Royal Standard flag is flown at full mast whenever King Charles III is in residence at Buckingham Palace or Windsor Castle and Madonna’s flag will let everyone in London know she’s in town.
Made by the royal family’s very own flagmakers, Madonna’s flag will stay up throughout her five headline shows, in which the A-lister will belt out four decades of her biggest hits.
Steve Sayer, vice president and general manager at the O2, said of the idea: ‘The arrival of Madonna and The Celebration Tour in London is arguably the biggest UK event in pop music this year.
‘Madonna has been at the forefront of the genre and part of pop culture for four decades, and we’re very proud that this hotly anticipated tour kicks off right here at The O2. This Royal Standard flag feels like a fitting tribute to pop royalty, and the perfect way to kick off six incredible shows."
