Charli xcx announced a 12-date North American arena tour this fall to support her seventh studio album, Music, Fashion, Film, kicking off Sept. 11 in Philadelphia at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
The itinerary includes two-night stands at Brooklyn's Barclays Center and Los Angeles' Kia Forum and stops in Toronto, Boston, Washington, Atlanta, San Diego, Glendale and Las Vegas; Boston's date is set for Sept. 24 at TD Garden. Underscores will open every show.
The album itself lands July 24 and already contains the singles "Rock Music" and "SS26." The tour announcement also rolled out new ticketing options: an artist presale begins June 12 at 9 a.m. local time for fans who register by June 10 at 11 p.m. ET, with remaining tickets going on sale June 12 at 1 p.m. local time.
For the first time on one of her arena runs, Charli is introducing limited Angel Tickets — $20 seats sold in pairs — which will become available in August. In addition, a small allocation of charity seats will be held in the first five rows at each arena, with 50 percent of net proceeds from those tickets earmarked for the Transgender Law Center.
Practical details are immediate: register before June 10 to access the artist presale on June 12 at 9 a.m. local time; if you miss that window, the general on-sale begins at 1 p.m. local time the same day. Angel Tickets arrive later in August and must be purchased two at a time, limiting single-seat availability for budget buyers.
The announcement comes as Charli pivots sonically. The new album and the tour follow her Brat era but are being presented as a move toward a more guitar-based sound, a contrast with the electro-dance beats that dominated Brat. The album cover features John Cale, Marc Jacobs and Martin Scorsese, signaling a broader set of cultural references around the record.
Not everything was settled in the press rollout: beyond the two already released tracks, the artist did not publish a setlist or say which songs will travel with her into arenas. That gap matters because a change in sonic focus — from electro-dance to guitar-driven material — raises questions about how the new songs will sit alongside older hits and how the stage show will be shaped for larger venues.
What fans should do next is clear and immediate: sign up by June 10 to get presale access on June 12 at 9 a.m. local time; plan for the public sale at 1 p.m. local time the same day; and watch for the limited Angel Tickets in August. What remains the single unresolved point is which songs beyond "Rock Music" and "SS26" will anchor the set — the album drops July 24, and the first full view of the tour’s playlist will arrive only after listeners hear the record and the artist finalizes the arena production.
