Following the announcement of her third studio album, HIT ME HARD AND SOFT, multi-award-winning artist Billie Eilish has revealed dates for her global tour of the same name. The tour is set to commence in North America in September 2024 and will reach Australian shores by February 2025. Produced by Live Nation and Frontier Touring, the tour also includes dates across Europe, the United Kingdom, and Ireland.
HIT ME HARD AND SOFT, the album, is scheduled for release on May 17, 2024, under the Darkroom/Interscope Records label. Fans have the option to pre-order the album, which promises new musical explorations from Eilish, written and produced by her brother and close collaborator, FINNEAS.
Australian fans can look forward to seeing Eilish perform in major arenas. The tickets for the Australian leg of the tour will be on sale from May 3. American Express® Card Members will have the privilege to access tickets in advance from May 1. Moreover, Vodafone customers can avail themselves of the pre-sale beginning May 2.
In alignment with her ongoing environmental advocacy, Eilish has ensured that the tour promotes sustainability. A noteworthy initiative includes the availability of Changemaker Tickets—a portion of these ticket sales will support OzHarvest and other non-profits working towards food security and climate action through the collaboration with Support + Feed.
The tour will continue Eilish’s partnership with the environmental non-profit REVERB. This collaboration has been effective in past tours, contributing over $1 million towards environmental and climate justice projects. The upcoming tour promises to uphold these standards, aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and single-use plastics, promoting plant-based food options and encouraging fans to participate in eco-friendly actions.
Details regarding the Eco-Village and transport options for the venues indicate the structured effort to make this tour environmentally sustainable. Fans are encouraged to bring empty reusable water bottles as free water refill stations will be available at each venue. The venues will also offer plant-based food options, asserting Billie Eilish’s advocacy for sustainable food practices.
Billie Eilish’s efforts to integrate impactful environmental action with her musical tours set a progressive precedent in the music industry, enforcing the idea that big-scale productions can maintain an eco-conscious approach.
As Adelaide is all too familiar with though, Billie has skipped South Australia on her tour, instead focusing her efforts in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
