(CNN) -

If you thought Madonna was going to take off the heels and put her feet up after the Super Bowl halftime show, think again. (This is Madonna we're talking about, after all.)

Instead, the pop star is gearing up for a world tour that will launch in Tel Aviv, Israel, on May 29.

Madge is taking her tour to "arenas, stadiums and special outdoor sights" around the globe, a statement says, including Australia, where she hasn't held a concert in 20 years.

According to Billboard, the tour should have close to 90 dates, which would be the most she's ever performed. Her last tour, 2008's "Sticky & Sweet," had 85 dates and grossed $408 million, Billboard reports.

The North American portion of her worldwide extravaganza includes 26 cities, with the first tour stop being in Philadelphia on Aug/ 28. She'll perform at New York's Yankee Stadium on Sept. 6, and hit the West coast with an Oct. 10 performance at the Staples Center in L.A.

The European portion will also have 26 shows, including stops in London, Paris, Milan and Berlin.

Tickets go on sale in Tel Aviv and the U.K. on Feb. 10, with admission to North American tour dates going on sale starting Feb. 13 via Ticketmaster.com and LiveNation.com.

Madonna's latest album, "MDNA," which features her new single "Give Me All Your Luvin,'"arrives March 26. For the full list of dates, visit Madonna.com.
