Background
On March 23, 2011, Hollywood Records announced through a press release that Selena Gomez & The Scene would be touring in the United States and Canada during the summer of 2011.[2] The first show confirmed was at the Orange County Fair in Costa Mesa, Calif, while sales started on April 2, 2011.[2] "I am so excited to see my incredible fans on tour", Gomez said in a statement,[2] that confirmed the tour name as We Own the Night Tour.[3] "We're working on a great production and set lists including some surprise covers. I want to make sure everyone has a fun time."[2]
The surprise cover was later revealed to be a tribute to American recording artist Britney Spears. Gomez further stated that Spears' Dream Within a Dream Tour was the first concert she attended.[4] Nearly 30 tour dates were confirmed a few days later.[4] When asked about the tour, Gomez stated.[5][6]
"I am very excited to be on my first headlining tour. I'm nervous more than anything because I feel like there's going to be a bit of expectation [...] I am so excited to see my incredible fans on tour. We're working a great production and set lists, including some surprise covers. I want to make sure everyone has a fun time. [...] I think with this whole tour, I'm trying my best to be as creative as possible", she explains. "So, there's going to be a production, there's going to be videos, effects, dancers, a lot of glitter ... I just wanted to make it feel like a rave."
