Katy Perry is hitting the road!

The “California Gurls” singer announced via Facebook (and later Twitter) that she is all set to kick off her 40-date “California Dreams” World Tour. The North American leg of the tour begins its journey in Atlanta on June 7th, and Katy will make stops in Orlando, New York, New Jersey, Toronto, Dallas, and Los Angeles before wrapping up with two dates in her hometown of Santa Barbara, CA in August.

“It’s an edible-looking tour with meat and candy,” she said. “It’ll look like a smorgasbord of them.”

Perry also said that she will be hiring Mark Ryden and Will Cotton, the artists who created the artwork for her Teenage Dream album, to help her create the look of the fantasy world tour.
