The Solar Power Tour is the third tour by New Zealand singer-songwriter, Lorde, in support of her third studio album Solar Power. Set to begin in April 2022, the tour will play over 50 concerts in Australasia, North America, and Europe.
The show consisted of three segments and an encore, with two or three costume changes. The set list changed frequently as the tour went on, but consistently featured songs from all three of her studio albums, and occasionally included covers.
Background[]
The Primavera Sound setlist for their 2022 festival was revealed on May 25, 2021, which included Lorde as a headliner. The dates for the Solar Power Tour were announced alongside the tracklist and release date of Solar Power on June 21, 2021. Lorde offered presale tickets for her fans subscribed to her mailing list, with presale tickets available from June 24, 2021 in North America and Europe, and June 30, 2021 in Australia and New Zealand. The general sale opened in North America and Europe on June 25, 2021, and in Australia and New Zealand on July 5, 2021. Taranaki Daily News reported that prices for her concert in New Plymouthstarted from NZ$89.90 plus fees.
On June 25, 2021, after her two London shows sold out instantly, Lorde added two new dates in London, with a third show in the Roundhouse Theatre scheduled for June 3, 2022, and another performance to close out the tour on June 28, 2022 at Alexandra Palace. A second show was added in Šibenik on the same day, with Croatia Week reporting that tickets for her first show sold out in 3 seconds. Additional shows were also added in Toronto, Boston, New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. On July 1, 2021, two additional shows were added in Australia, after "overwhelming demand", with one show each added in Melbourne and Sydney.
It was announced on November 10, 2021 that the Australasian leg of the Solar Power Tour would be postponed to 2023. Lorde said of the decision that "touring internationally through a Covid outbreak has a ton of unforeseen moving parts, and I'd much rather play for you when we're all confident it will go smoothly", and promoters Frontier Touring said that the tour was initially scheduled with the expectation that there would be no restrictions on quarantine and that the borders of Australia and New Zealand would be open to non-citizens. New shows in Lower Hutt, Brisbane, and Perth were also announced.
