Billie Eilish has officially entered a new era. With the Barbie hype over, the 22-year-old star has announced that her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, will be released May 17. And yes, that means she’s going on tour. Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour will take to the road in September 2024 and arrive here in the UK in summer 2025.
In proper Gen-Z fashion, Billie’s tour will involve a number of planet-friendly initiatives. There will be plant-based food on offer at each venue, eco-villages and free water refill stations, and profits from a select number of tickets will go towards organisations fighting food insecurity and the climate crisis.
Fans will also be encouraged to use a sustainable means of transport and create their concert fit out of thrifted, upcycled or borrowed clothes. Of course, you have to get tickets first. Here’s how.
