Arena trek will support 'Circus'

Britney Spears is set to tour the world again, with the jaunt kicking off in spring 2009, according to reports today.

The dates will take place in arena-size venues and will be produced by AEG Live, the company that recently worked on tours with Justin Timberlake and Bon Jovi.

Spears is currently gearing up for the release of her brand new album ‘Circus’, set to come out on December 2.

The record is the follow-up to last year’s ‘Blackout’ album, for which she did little publicity due to personal issues.

She has not toured since 2004, and that tour made over $34 million, says Billboard.
