The big Katy Perry Facebook announcement on Wednesday? She simply announced that her California Dreams 2011 world tour is coming to North America this summer.

The North American leg of the tour will start on June 7th in Atlanta, GA and will run through August 14th with two hometown shows in Katy's hometown Santa Barbara, CA.

To support her sophomore album Teenage Dream (EMI's Capitol Records), Katy will kick off the California Dreams tour on February 20th in Lisbon, Portugal, traveling throughout Europe, the UK, Australia and Japan before hitting stateside in June.

Katy is planning on interacting with fans through social media networks throughout the California Dreams tour. Using Facebook Places/Deals, fans will be able to check into the venues each night to receive special treats. Fans will also be able to submit their own photos of the show via Twitter which will be incorporated into the live show and also live on www.katyperry.com.

As announced last week, Katy will perform at this year's Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Feb. 13th. Six-time nominee, Katy is up for four awards this year including the coveted Album of the Year, along with Best Pop Album, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Teenage Dream" and "Best Pop Collaboration With Vocals for "California Gurls" featuring Snoop Dogg. Katy has also been nominated for two BRIT awards for International Album and International Female Solo Artist. The BRIT awards will be handed out live on February 15th at the O2 Arena in London.
