Billie Eilish just revealed that she will commence a worldwide tour consisting of 81 shows later this year.

The artist who sang What Was I Made For has confirmed upcoming concerts in North America, Australia, and Europe starting from September.

Billie has recently informed the music news portal Billboard that her most recent concert tour would be focused on sustainability and that she has collaborated with an environmental organization to plan it.

On 3rd May, tickets for "Hit Me Hard And Soft" tour, which is named after the new album, will be available for purchase.

On 29 September, Billie will commence her performance tour in Canada, and in the subsequent month, she will take her show to the US.

Next February, she will travel to Australia and then make her way to Europe in April of the following year.

The singer who received an Oscar award is going to perform at 12 different locations in the United Kingdom. This includes two concerts in Glasgow, six in London, and four in Manchester.

Billie has been advocating for climate action for quite some time now. She has made a pledge to ensure that her final tour in the year 2022 is "climate positive". This means that the tour should minimize the emissions produced and offset them by an even larger amount.

She collaborated with Reverb, a non-governmental organization that advocates sustainability in the music sector, and will partner with them once more during this tour.

Actions to address environmental concerns include decreasing the use of disposable plastics, presenting food alternatives derived from plants, and contributing a portion of earnings to support projects that combat climate change.

During an interview at the beginning of this month, Billie informed Billboard that she and her crew were putting forth all efforts "to diminish uselessness in every aspect of my music".

She stated that her folks have consistently filled her in on all the details and made her very aware of the fact that each decision we make and every move we make has consequences either positive or negative and that has always been ingrained in her mind.

It's impossible for me to disregard my knowledge and continue with my work and job without taking any action. This isn't in line with my upbringing or how I want to lead my life.

Billie has disclosed her intention to decrease the influence of physical copies upon the release of Hit Me Hard And Soft, which is scheduled to come out on May 17th.

This involves producing vinyl records from recycled vinyl and utilizing recycled materials to create the packaging and album covers.

The vocalist stated that she won't be launching any individual tracks beforehand. She explained that she desires the audience to listen to the complete album uninterruptedly.

Just days after Billie announced that she would be participating in the Fortnite Festival, a rhythm-based game within the widely played online shooting game, the tour was announced. This comes after Lady Gaga's previous inclusion in the festival.
