Lorde Announces ‘Solar Power’ 2022 Australia & New Zealand Tour

June 22, 2021

UPDATE 10/11/21: Lorde Pushes Australia & New Zealand ‘Solar Power’ Tour To 2023

ORIGINAL STORY: While the world still celebrates Lorde’s sunny return last week, the New Zealand superstar has offered up even more cause for celebration today with the announcement that she will return to stages around New Zealand and Australia early next year, with her Solar Power Tour.

This nine-date run across the Antipodes will be Lorde‘s first since her 2017 Melodrama tour. Kicking off in her native New Zealand on Sunday 27 February, Lorde’s Solar Power Tour will head through Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney, before wrapping up in Perth on Saturday 19 March.

These dates are just part of a wider-ranging 2022 global tour announcement for Lorde, which includes stops across Europe, the UK and North America, meaning Lorde season is well and truly upon us.

This announcement comes just about a week after Lorde dropped Solar Power – her new album’s title track – and its accompanying music video. ‘Solar Power’ was penned alongside Lorde’s long-time collaborator and producer Jack Antonoff and featured backing vocals from Clairo and Phoebe Bridgers.

The Solar Power Tour ticket sales start from next week. See dates and details below.
