The “Birds of a Feather” singer has finally embarked on her seventh headlining world tour
Billie Eilish is back to hit us hard and soft with her brand new headlining world tour, her seventh, in support of her acclaimed latest album, Hit Me Hard and Soft.
The 22-year-old musician finally embarked on her long-awaited tour on Sunday, September 29 in Quebec City, Canada, playing to a sold out crowd at Videotron Centre.
Her performance is already making waves online, from telling the enthusiastic crowd to join her in a rendition of “the quiet game” so she can loop her vocals, to performing arena-blasting versions of some of her acoustic hits.
And with the show also came more of her signature style, as Billie rocked up for the Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour’s opening show in a fully red-hot look.
She wore an oversized red Nike jersey with the number 26 on it and a pair of red see-through lace shorts with blue bicycle shorts underneath. She styled out her fit with a pair of Nike black knee pads, white socks with olive green sneakers, and cycled through a blue and white floral bandana and a black baseball cap, before letting her hair down.
Billie will return for a two-night set in Toronto on October 1 and 2, followed by a jaunt over to the United States for a leg that’ll run all the way up until December 21 in Inglewood, California.
Her second leg in Australia and Europe kicks off next year on February 18 in Brisbane and will finally conclude, after a total of 83 shows (so far) in Dublin, Ireland on July 27.

While opening acts for her 2025 shows have not yet been revealed, for her North American leg, she is joined by Nat & Alex Wolff, Towa Bird, and The Marías, before Ashnikko and her brother Finneas join her for the final two dates in California.
The tour also comes on the heels of the release of the music video for the album’s second single “Birds of a Feather,” which was officially sent to radio as Hit Me Hard and Soft’s latest offering this July.

Upon the album’s release in May, “Lunch” was promoted as its lead single, and peaked at number five in the United States while hitting the top ten in several other countries worldwide. However, at the same time, several other album tracks were gaining major traction, specifically “Birds of a Feather.”
The emotional and euphoric synth new wave song immediately stood out as a fan favorite upon the album’s release and gained critical acclaim, and after charting organically, was officially made a single. It has since also peaked at number five Stateside and has achieved significant success worldwide as well.
While speaking with Lana Del Rey for Interview Magazine recently, Billie discussed the prospect of relationships mentioned in songs like “Birds of a Feather” and others in the album, especially when it comes to breaking up.
“I really don’t like being — I was going to say out of control, but there’s ways that I do like being out of control. I have a power issue and a control issue, and I also don’t like being vulnerable in a romantic way,” she said.
