Billie Eilish Announces Dates for Massive 'Hit Me Hard and Soft' Global Tour

Billie Eilish just announced an 81-date world tour to promote her highly-anticipated upcoming album Hit Me Hard and Soft, which is due out on Friday, May 17.

The North American leg of the tour will begin in Quebec on Sept. 29 and end outside of Los Angeles on Dec. 17. Eilish will start her Australia trek in Brisbane on Feb. 18 and end in Melbourne on March 8. The European leg will begin in Stockholm on April 23 and end in Dublin on July 27.

Presale events for the shows will begin on Tuesday, April 30. Tickets will be available to the general public on Friday, May 3.

Eilish will not be releasing any singles ahead of the new album, but fans can pre-save the record on streaming services and pre-order physical copies.

The tour announcement came just days after the pop star signed a letter supporting ticketing reform in the U.S. Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong and Lorde supported the note.

The bill the artists are supporting would require transparency in ticket sales and protect consumers from bots and scalpers.

"We are joining together to say that the current system is broken," they said. "Predatory resellers and secondary platforms engage in deceptive ticketing practices to inflate ticket prices and deprive fans of the chance to see their favorite artists at a fair price."

Eilish's new tour is being coordinated by Live Nation, which will reportedly be facing an antitrust lawsuit from the U.S. Department of Justice at some point in the near future. Concertgoers and politicians have knocked the company for what they see as a degraded, predatory consumer experience.

But Eilish and Live Nation are taking measures to ensure most North American fans can access tickets at a relatively affordable price through the Face Value Exchange program

"If fans purchase tickets for a show in the U.S. or Canada and can't attend, they'll have the option to resell them to other fans at the original price paid," a press release says.

"To help protect the Exchange, the tour has requested all tickets be mobile only and restricted from transfer. This applies to all shows except those in Colorado, Illinois, and New York where Face Value Exchange cannot be mandated."
