The 40 dates span across North America and Europe, with support from Gracie Abrams, Holly Humberstone and Baby Queen.

Olivia Rodrigo is heading on the road next year for a full tour. On Monday (Dec. 6), the singer took to Twitter to release a full list of concert dates in support of her debut album Sour, spanning from North America to Europe.

“SOUR TOUR IS FINALLY HAPPENING!!!” the 18-year-old wrote alongside the tour’s official poster, which features her hair suspended mid-air by helium balloons. “tix on sale Friday!!!!”

Supporting Rodrigo during her 40-date run will be Gracie Abrams, Holly Humberstone and Baby Queen — Abrams will be joining the singer in the North American leg from Apr. 2 to Apr. 23, while Humberstone will join Apr. 26 to May 25. Queen will be the sole support for the European leg of the tour.

Per Rodrigo, tickets to the tour go on sale on Friday, Dec. 10. A Ticketmaster verified fan sale is currently open until 12 a.m. PT on Tuesday. Fans that sign up for the verified presale will be provided with a unique code on Thursday to purchase their tickets the following day.

The Sour tour announcement comes at the end of a successful year for the 18-year-old. Rodrigo was recently nominated for seven awards at the 2022 Grammy Awards, including nods in the Big Four categories — best new artist, song and record of the year (“drivers license”) as well as album of the year. Sour charted in the top spot on the Billboard 200 chart following its release in June, with all tracks from the album charting within the top 30 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart upon its release.

Sade will not be attending their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony this week.

The English group, made up of Sade Adu, Paul Denman, Stuart Matthewman, and Andrew Hale, are among this year's inductees into the prestigious institution. The ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles this Saturday.

However, a representative for Sade confirmed on Tuesday through the band's official website that none of the members would be attending the event.

"We're sorry that we won't be able to join everyone in person to celebrate alongside the other artists. However, our absence does not lessen how deeply this recognition means to us," they stated. "Being welcomed into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is a wonderful honour and a meaningful opportunity to express our gratitude, not just to everyone who voted for us, but to every person who has made our music part of their lives."

The representative also acknowledged their manager Roger Davies for his support and paid tribute to the late engineer and co-producer Mike Pela, who passed away in 2022.

"We owe so much to everyone who has supported us throughout this journey," they continued, before signing the message: "Sade, Stuart, Andrew, and Paul. Mike Pela, the fifth member of Sade... This recognition belongs to you just as much as it does to us, Mike. You will always be our soul mate."

Sade will be joining Oasis among the artists missing this year's ceremony. Liam Gallagher previously addressed his absence in a message on X, saying the journey was "too far" for him to make just "for the night".

The other musicians being recognised at this weekend's ceremony include Billy Idol, Phil Collins, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, the late Luther Vandross, and Wu-Tang Clan.
