Charli xcx Is Taking Her New Album on a Massive Arena Tour

Charli xcx just announced her biggest North American headlining run to date, and it's exactly the kind of rollout you'd expect from someone coming off a year where her album title literally became the word of the year.

The Music, Fashion, Film Tour is a 12-date arena run in support of her upcoming seventh studio album, Music, Fashion, Film, which drops July 24 on Atlantic Records. The headlining dates stretch from September 11 through October 23, hitting ten cities across North America. Two-night stands at Brooklyn's Barclays Center and The Kia Forum in Los Angeles tell you everything about the demand here.

Tour Dates

Before the headlining run kicks off, Charli xcx will hit a string of major festivals this summer. She's playing Lollapalooza in Chicago on July 31, Outside Lands in San Francisco on August 7, and then crossing the pond for Reading Festival (August 28) and Leeds Festival (August 29).

Then the arena dates begin. Here's the full headlining schedule:

September 11 – Philadelphia, PA @ Xfinity Mobile Arena

September 14 – Brooklyn, NY @ Barclays Center

September 15 – Brooklyn, NY @ Barclays Center

September 21 – Toronto, ON @ Scotiabank Arena

September 24 – Boston, MA @ TD Garden

September 28 – Washington, DC @ Capital One Arena

October 2 & 9 – Austin, TX @ Austin City Limits Music Festival

October 6 – Atlanta, GA @ State Farm Arena

October 14 – San Diego, CA @ Viejas Arena

October 21 – Glendale, AZ @ Desert Diamond Arena

October 23 – Las Vegas, NV @ MGM Grand Garden Arena

The Support Act

underscores will open all headlining dates, and honestly, that's a perfect pick. If you're not familiar, she's an incredibly versatile producer and singer-songwriter who blends dubstep, pop-punk, hyperpop, and indie into something that really doesn't sound like anyone else. Her third studio album U dropped in March 2026 and has already been named one of The FADER's favorite albums of the year so far. She's going to be a great warm-up for these rooms.

Tickets and $20 Angel Tickets

Here's the ticket breakdown. An artist presale opens Friday, June 12 at 9 a.m. local time. To get in, you need to sign up on Charli's website by Wednesday, June 10 at 11 p.m. ET. No codes needed. Access is tied to your account.

General on-sale follows the same day, Friday, June 12, via Ticketmaster.

Now here's the part that got my attention. Following the general on-sale, Charli xcx is introducing "Angel Tickets" in August. These are $20 non-transferable tickets sold in pairs, max two per order. The catch? Your seat location won't be revealed until the day of the show at the venue box office. You could end up anywhere from GA floor to upper level, and some seats may have limited views. More details on that are coming later, but if you're flexible and just want to be in the building, it's a pretty incredible deal for an arena show.

The tour will also offer a limited number of charity tickets in the first five rows at each venue, with 50% of proceeds from those tickets going to the Transgender Law Center.

The Album

Music, Fashion, Film is the follow-up to Brat, which, I'll be real, needs no introduction at this point. That album won three Grammys, got named the best album of 2024 by Billboard and Rolling Stone, and literally spawned the Collins English Dictionary's word of the year. The cultural moment was inescapable.

For the new record, it sounds like Charli is pivoting toward a grittier, more guitar-driven direction. The two singles released so far, "SS26" and "Rock Music", lean into that sound, though she's been clear that she's not making a straight-up rock album. The album cover was shot by Aidan Zamiri and features John Cale, Marc Jacobs, and Martin Scorsese, which honestly tells you a lot about the vibe she's going for.

Music, Fashion, Film is out July 24. You can pre-order the album now.

Don't Sleep

The presale signup deadline is June 10, so if you want early access, handle that now. And if you're willing to roll the dice on a mystery seat for $20 in August, the Angel Tickets are worth keeping an eye on. These arena dates are going to move fast. Get your tickets here.
