Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour is the ongoing seventh headlining concert tour by American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish, in support of her third studio album Hit Me Hard and Soft (2024).[1] The tour, which was announced on April 29, 2024, started on September 29, 2024, at the Videotron Centre in Quebec City, and will conclude on July 27, 2025, at the 3Arena in Dublin. Nat & Alex Wolff, Towa Bird, The Marías, Ashnikko, and Finneas are set to serve as supporting acts.
Billie Eilish announced the release of her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, on April 8, 2024.[2] A few days before the album’s release, on April 29, she announced the dates for Hit Me Hard And Soft: The Tour. The announcement was followed by a tour trailer posted on her official YouTube account consisting of a compilation of videos from her previous concerts and a teaser of the song "Lunch", which she previously teased during Coachella Festival.[3] She announced 81 dates across North America, Oceania, and Europe. On September 30, Billie announced two additional dates for Inglewood to be held on December 20 and 21 at the Kia Forum, bringing the total to five shows at the venue.[4]
The tour was received with rave reviews from critics. Lindsay Zoladz of The New York Times praised Eilish's ability to bringing the intimacy of her songs to the arena stage, noting Billie "suddenly transforming acoustic numbers into arena-rocking power ballads and playing the adoring audience like a well-tuned instrument".[5] Melissa Ruggieri of USA Today pointed Billie's authenticity with her audience, saying that "There is no artifice to her. No questioning her level of sincerity when she tells fans at the end of the show, 'I will always cherish you … I will always fight for you'".[6]
Writing for The Guardian, Rob LeDonne complimented Billie's ability to connect with the audience, calling her "the master of playful confidence, a quality on full display."[7] Kyle Denis from Billboard highlighted the fact that Billie plays multiple instruments throughout the show, showcasing her ability on piano, acoustic guitar and electric guitar: "From writing to acting, the world has been getting familiar with Billie's countless talents for years — but seeing her flaunt most of them in one setting never gets old".[8]
This set list is from the September 29, 2024, concert in Quebec City. It is not intended to represent all of the concerts for the duration of the tour.[9]
