Tyla Announces Global A*POP World Tour Across Continents

Estimated read time 4 min read

Fresh off the release of her highly anticipated second studio album, A*POP, South African global superstar Tyla has announced her biggest tour to date, a 34-city world tour that will see her take the new project to audiences across Europe, the United Kingdom, North America and Africa.

The two-time GRAMMY Award-winning singer and songwriter revealed THE A*POP WORLD TOUR this week, marking her first full headline tour spanning four continents. Presented by Live Nation, the extensive run follows a landmark few years for the Johannesburg-born star, whose rise from amapiano breakout to global pop sensation continues to gather momentum.

The tour kicks off on 12 October in Paris before making its way through major cities across Europe and the UK, including Amsterdam, London, Brussels and Stockholm. From there, Tyla heads to North America, launching that leg on 12 November in California before performing in cities such as Vancouver, Chicago, Boston, Brooklyn, San Diego and Las Vegas.

African fans will also get the chance to experience the new era live, with Tyla set to bring the tour home through performances in Lagos, Cape Town and Johannesburg between December and January.

The announcement arrives just days after the release of A*POP, Tyla’s much-anticipated sophomore album. The 14-track project features some of her most talked-about releases, including “CHANEL,” “IS IT,” “SHE DID IT AGAIN” and “IS IT LOVE,” showcasing her continued evolution as one of the most influential young artists on the global music scene.

In support of the album, Tyla has embarked on a high-profile promotional run that has further cemented her international star power. Last week, she headlined The Today Show’s Citi Summerstage concert series at Rockefeller Plaza, performing tracks from the new album alongside her global smash hit “WATER” just hours after A*POP officially dropped.

The singer also joined the programme’s hosts for an interview discussing the album, its global rollout and the release of her newly unveiled Bratz doll, adding another milestone to a year already packed with career highlights.

Continuing her impressive run, Tyla recently delivered the headline halftime performance at the 2026 AT&T WNBA All-Star Game in Chicago. Performing “CHANEL,” “WATER” and “SHE DID IT AGAIN,” she made history as the first international artist to headline the event’s halftime show in its 30-year history.

Fans have also been treated to a series of exclusive live performances through her latest collaboration with Vevo, including a live rendition of “IS IT LOVE,” with additional performances expected to be released in the coming weeks.

The A*POP World Tour follows the success of Tyla’s 2025 We Wanna Party Tour across Asia, which included sold-out performances in Japan and the United Arab Emirates. With demand for her live shows continuing to soar around the world, the upcoming tour represents another major chapter in what has become one of the most remarkable success stories in modern African music.

Tickets for THE A*POP WORLD TOUR will be available through an artist presale beginning on 29 July, with general ticket sales opening on 31 July through Tyla’s official channels.
