Tyla will embark on her biggest headlining trek to date with The A*POP World Tour, a 34-date run supporting her newly released sophomore album, APOP*.
The tour will span Europe, the United Kingdom, North America and Africa, beginning Oct. 12 in Paris before concluding Jan. 9, 2027, with a hometown performance in Johannesburg. The European leg includes stops in Amsterdam, London, Berlin, Stockholm and Copenhagen before the North American portion opens Nov. 12 in Wheatland, California. The tour will continue through major markets including San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Tyla will then close the run with performances in Lagos, Cape Town and Johannesburg.
The tour comes on the heels of he release of APOP*, Tyla’s second studio album, which expands on the blend of amapiano, Afropop, R&B and mainstream pop that helped establish her as one of music’s fastest-rising international stars. The project features singles including “CHANEL,” “IS IT LOVE” and “SHE DID IT AGAIN,” continuing the momentum generated by her self-titled debut and the worldwide success of “Water,” which earned the inaugural Grammy Award for Best African Music Performance.
The new tour also marks a milestone in Tyla’s career after she was forced to cancel a planned 2024 world tour because of an injury. It will be her first full-scale headline tour across four continents and her most extensive North American run to date, underscoring her rapid global ascent as she continues to bring South African music and culture to an increasingly international audience.
