Hayley Williams has confirmed her 2026 solo world tour dates and announced plans to “give fans a better chance to access tickets”.
It comes after the Paramore frontwoman “leaked” 20 dates over the weekend. Fans who visited her website found they could click on the “trash” folder to uncover a video of her as well as an image titled “oops.jpg”, which contained a poster detailing locations and dates.
The North American leg kicks off on March 28 in Atlanta. It will include stops in Toronto, Boston, Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, Nashville, Austin, Oakland, Los Angeles, and more, before she hits the UK and Europe in June next year.
Water from Your Eyes will provide support for the majority of the dates, which were rounded off in a separate handwritten list with: “…to be continued?”, hinting that more would follow.
Now, she has officially posted the dates on her Instagram account.
A 24 hour pre-sale registration is available here until 10am EST/3pm GMT tomorrow (November 11).
After registering fans will receive an email by 10am EST/3pm GMT on Thursday (November 13) with a “ticket unlock” code before the pre-sale starts at 10am local time on Friday (November 14) here.
Explaining the sale, Williams wrote: “It feels like the right time to let you know… I’m going on tour. And I want to get tickets into the hands of my fans, at a price that is as reasonable as I could get.
“I’ve had countless conversations with my team, and they’ve spent countless hours trying to find the best solution for fans to be able to buy tickets. It’s been tough (to say the least), and unfortunately, there’s no way to guarantee that zero tickets get scalped. But we’re doing our best.
“In short, I’m trying out a platform called Openstage to host a verified presale registration. Openstage’s fan validation system helps verify human fans and reduce bots and scalpers, giving my fans a better chance to access tickets.”
She continued: “All registrants will be required to verify both their email address and phone number as a preventative measure against bots and scalpers. Only those registered and verified for the presale will receive a unique code to purchase tickets during the presale period.
“It’s important to note that receiving a code does not guarantee you will be able to buy tickets – they will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis.”
She insisted that “this system won’t be perfect” and fans “shouldn’t have to jump through hoops to buy tickets to see the show”.
But she added: “Unfortunately, it’s a broken and convoluted system. My team and I are doing everything we can, and I am hopeful that the processes we’ve put into place will get as many tickets into the hands of my fans (at face value) as possible.
“I can’t wait to be back on the road and see all of your faces. We’ll dance, scream and cry together.”

Elsewhere, Williams recently picked up four Grammy nominations for her surprise-dropped solo album ‘Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party’, which she released digitally in August.
NME gave her latest record a glowing five-star review, writing: “As with almost every era of Hayley Williams’ career, this new release has come with questions about the future of Paramore. The determined lyrics on the tender ‘I Won’t Quit On You’ should be all the reassurance worried fans need, but if that’s not enough, there’s plenty in this brilliant, swaggering new chapter to be excited about.
“These songs might be about missed second chances, but Williams is certainly making the most of hers.”
