Olivia Rodrigo has announced an expansive international tour in support of her third studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love, set for release on June 12. The tour will kick off in Hartford, Connecticut, this September and includes multiple-night stops in major cities, including a two-night run in Charlotte at Spectrum Center on October 7-8.
The new album follows Rodrigo’s 2023 release, Guts, which earned nominations for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards and was supported by her sold-out Guts World Tour, which stopped in Charlotte in 2024. Her debut album, Sour, became one of the most-streamed albums of 2021, propelled by the breakout single “Driver’s License,” which made her the youngest artist ever to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 at age 17.
Rodrigo’s upcoming project continues her collaboration with producer Dan Nigro and leans further into experimental pop-rock with the album’s lead single, “Drop Dead,” released on April 17. Inspired in part by her time in London, the tour will feature support from dream pop band Wolf Alice for the Charlotte dates, along with Devon Again, Die Spitz, Grace Ives, and The Last Dinner Party on select stops.
Wolf Alice released their latest album, The Clearing, in August 2025, a more polished and pop-leaning effort compared to their earlier, more atmospheric, shoegaze-influenced work. Their 2017 album, Visions of a Life, received widespread critical acclaim and won the prestigious Mercury Prize in 2018.
Presale for the tour begins Tuesday, May 5 at 12 p.m. with tickets going on sale to the public on Thursday, May 7 at 12 p.m.
