The 16-year-old singer will embark on an eight-date tour of the British Isles in December, which will see her visiting London, Manchester, Birmingham and Dublin.
Fans were given their first opportunity to purchase tickets at 9am on Saturday and reportedly flooded vendors with telephone and online demand. The star's shows at Dublin's O2 arena on December 16 and 17 were the first to sell out, with all seats snapped up after just ten minutes.
Commenting on the rush of sales, Cyrus revealed: "I am looking forward to coming to the UK and meeting the fans. I am thrilled at the response to the shows."
She added: "I love Britain and I love London. Looking forward to the great shopping on Oxford Street. I'm a massive Beatles fan so hoping to have time to stop by Abbey Road studios for a visit."
Cyrus released her second studio album Breakout last year. The disc was the teen's first singing project which had no connection to her Disney TV show Hannah Montana.
