A New Era Begins
Charli XCX is ready to leave the Brat era behind and step into something fresh. The pop icon has officially announced her Music, Fashion, Film Tour, a 12-date North American trek supporting her upcoming seventh studio album of the same name. The tour kicks off on September 11 in Philadelphia, with stops in New York, Toronto, Boston, Washington D.C., Atlanta, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and more.
The album, titled Music, Fashion, Film, drops on July 24 and marks a noticeable shift in sound. Moving away from the high-energy electronic beats that defined Brat, Charli is embracing a more guitar-driven approach. Fans have already gotten a taste of the new direction with singles like “Rock Music” and “SS26,” which offer an early glimpse into what promises to be a bold new chapter.
Fashion-Forward Visuals and Star-Studded Artwork
The upcoming tour isn’t just about the music—it’s a complete visual overhaul. After the instantly recognizable lime-green aesthetic that dominated the Brat rollout, Charli is now leaning into a darker, more fashion-forward identity. The album artwork itself hints at this transition, featuring cultural icons John Cale, Marc Jacobs, and Martin Scorsese, representing the album’s three pillars: music, fashion, and film.
Joining Charli on the road will be electronic artist Underscores, who is set to open all tour dates. The live shows are expected to introduce a completely new visual era, with stage design and wardrobe reflecting the album’s cinematic and style-driven themes.
Angel Tickets and Festival Frenzy
Charli is also introducing a fan-friendly initiative called Angel Tickets. A limited number of $20 tickets will become available in August, allowing fans to purchase affordable seats that will be assigned on the day of the show. Additionally, select charity tickets in premium seating sections will support the Transgender Law Center, with half of the net proceeds being donated to the organization.
Beyond her headline tour, Charli has a packed festival schedule lined up for the summer and fall. She is set to perform at Lollapalooza in Chicago, Outside Lands in San Francisco, Reading & Leeds in the U.K., and Austin City Limits later this year. With a new album, a new sound, and a new visual identity, Charli XCX is preparing to launch what could be one of the most ambitious chapters of her career yet.
