Reneé Rapp Announces Massive Fall Headline Tour Kicking Off September 23
Today, critically acclaimed singer-songwriter and pop disruptor Reneé Rapp announces her biggest headline tour to date, including major arena plays at venues across North America including the iconic Madison Square Garden in New York, TD Garden in Boston, and Kia Forum in Los Angeles.
Kicking off September 23 at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, the 16-city run is in support of Rapp’s forthcoming sophomore album BITE ME (out August 1 via Interscope Records). Special guests Ravyn Lenae & Syd will join Rapp across various shows.
ARTIST PRESALE: Fans can sign up for the Artist Presale now through June 24 at 11 PM PT at livemu.sc/reneerapp. The Artist Presale will begin June 26 at 10 AM through June 26 at 10 PM local time

GENERAL ONSALE: General Onsale Begins Friday, June 27 at 10 AM Local Time on ReneeRapp.com
This announcement follows the release of Rapp’s blistering new single “Leave Me Alone,” the first taste of BITE ME and a bold introduction to her new chapter. Combining Rapp’s signature vulnerability with an unbothered edge, the track sets the tone for what promises to be her most dynamic live show yet. With BITE ME, Rapp leans into chaos, confidence, and control on her own terms—bringing that energy to arena stages across the country this fall.
VIP: The tour will also offer a number of VIP Soundcheck Q&A Experiences, giving fans the opportunity to elevate their concert experience with exclusive access and perks. This experience may include early entry into the venue before the general public, access to a private pre-show soundcheck with Reneé and her band, and a live Q&A session where fans can engage with Reneé in an intimate setting. VIP purchasers will also receive an exclusive, limited-edition merchandise item as a keepsake. Experience contents vary by offer and location. VIP experiences go on sale starting Wednesday at Reneerapp.com.
Reneé is proud to announce she will be partnering with two nonprofits working in spaces that she’s deeply passionate about for her upcoming tour; global humanitarian organization Save the Children, which provides health, education and protection to children in the U.S. and around the world, and leading environmental nonprofit greening the music industry REVERB, making her tour more sustainable and simultaneously engaging fans at each show to take meaningful action in the fight against climate change.

Tyla Announces 34-Date Global Tour in Support of New Album APOP*
Fresh off the release of her new album APOP*, South African singer-songwriter Tyla has announced a 34-date global tour that will take her across Europe, North America, and Africa.
The tour kicks off in Paris, France, in October before moving through the UK and Europe. Tyla will then begin the North American leg in San Francisco on November 13, followed by a stop at Vancouver’s Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre on November 15.
The singer will return to Canada later in the run for a November 26 performance at Toronto’s Coca-Cola Coliseum. From there, she’ll continue through the United States before heading back to Africa for shows in Lagos, Cape Town, and her hometown of Johannesburg, where the tour will wrap up.
The run marks Tyla‘s longest stretch of North American shows to date. She had originally planned a world tour in support of her 2024 self-titled debut album, but the trek was cancelled after she suffered an injury.
Tyla‘s breakout single “Water” became a global hit and earned her the inaugural Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance in 2024. The song later received a remix featuring Travis Scott.
The upcoming tour follows the July 24 release of APOP*, Tyla‘s latest full-length project and the follow-up to her self-titled debut.
Presales for the tour begin Wednesday, July 29, at 10 a.m. local time, with tickets going on general sale Friday, July 31, at 10 a.m. local time.
