Album release party in London to stream on July 2; two-day pop-up experiences planned in New York and London
TikTok announced a multi-part campaign on Monday to promote Madonna‘s upcoming album “Confessions II,” scheduled for release July 3 via Warner Records. The initiative includes a live-streamed album premiere, in-app fan experiences, and physical pop-up events in New York and London.
On July 2, Madonna will participate in the “iHeartRadio and TikTok LIVE Premiere with Madonna” from her album release party in London. The hour-long broadcast, streaming worldwide on TikTok LIVE and iHeartRadio, will feature Madonna in conversation with Bob The Drag Queen, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the creative process and inspirations behind the new music. Producer Stuart Price and Lola Leon, who collaborates with Madonna on the track “The Test,” are also scheduled to appear.
The live stream will incorporate interactive TikTok features including polls, custom-designed “like” icons, fan Q&A, and live callouts. DJs Stuart Price, Honey Dijon, Jodie Harsh, and Horse Meat Disco will provide music throughout the event. The broadcast will also air on more than 200 iHeartRadio stations nationwide. Fans can submit their confessions using iHeartRadio’s Hit Nation digital station talkback feature leading up to the show.
On July 3 and 4, TikTok and Madonna will host immersive in-person pop-up experiences called “TikTok House of Confessions” in both cities. The New York location at 188 Lafayette will operate from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, while the London venue at The Vinyl Factory will be open from 1:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Each location will feature album-inspired visuals, curated merchandise including a limited-edition TikTok vinyl variant, exclusive listening sessions, and Confessions-themed content creation opportunities. Reservations are limited and available through an online ticketing system.
The company is also launching a dedicated in-app experience for “Confessions II,” offering global fans interactive tasks, rewards, and profile frames to engage with Madonna’s music and participate as a community.
Madonna maintains a significant presence on TikTok with over 5.1 million followers. According to the announcement, fan excitement following the album announcement has generated what the platform describes as a “Madonna Summer” trend across generations. The campaign aims to unite the artist’s global fan community through digital and in-person activations centered around the new album.
