Billie Eilish has added another leg to her ‘Happier Than Ever’ world tour, announcing six Asian dates this August.
The shows, announced today will mark Eilish’s first-ever headlining shows in the continent. The singer had previously performed in Singapore, Tokyo and Osaka in 2018 as part of the Laneway and Summer Sonic festivals respectively.
The new dates will take Eilish to cities across the Philippines, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Japan. A full list of dates is available below.
A pre-sale for Eilish’s fan-club will go live tomorrow morning from 10am local time. A second pre-sale, held by tour promoter Live Nation, will follow the next day on Saturday June 25. The general sale will begin this coming Monday, June 27 – also at 10am local time. Find more info at Live Nation Asia.
The tour dates take place a month before Eilish’s previously announced tour of Australia and New Zealand. Eilish is currently on tour through Europe and the UK, which will include a performance at Glastonbury Festival’s Pyramid Stage this weekend.
“It’s a serious once in a lifetime opportunity to be asked to go to and to do,” Eilish said of her Glastonbury performance in an interview with Apple Music 1’s Matt Wilkinson. “And I’m constantly feeling like I’m undeserving of everything, and I think that’s a good thing. I would say that that’s a good thing for the most part. But first of all, it makes you doubt everybody because you’re like, ‘Why would you choose me?’”
She added: “But with that being said, that’s why I’m even more excited about it and stoked and to be the youngest headliner ever. And I’m a woman and that’s really cool. And it makes me excited for the future. And unfortunately, there’s not a lot of female headliners constantly. So I feel really honored and really excited.”
