Hayley Williams announced her second solo tour of 2026, titled “The Hayley Williams Show,” which begins this fall [1, 2].
The tour marks a significant expansion of the artist's solo presence, moving her recent studio work from digital platforms to large-scale live venues. By targeting amphitheaters across two continents, Williams is scaling her performance footprint to match the reach of her growing solo discography.
Also referred to as the “Live in the Americas” amphitheaters tour, the series of concerts will visit at least 24 cities [1, 3]. The itinerary includes major stops in North and South America, with confirmed venues such as the Xfinity Center in Boston and a scheduled appearance in New Orleans [1, 4, 5].
Williams is launching this tour to support and promote her third solo album, “Ego Death,” which was released in 2025 [6]. The tour dates are slated for the latter half of 2026, focusing on the fall season [1, 3].
As the former frontwoman of Paramore, Williams has transitioned into a distinct solo identity over the last several years. This upcoming tour represents her second major outing of the current year, signaling a high level of activity for the artist in 2026 [2]. The decision to utilize amphitheaters suggests a high expectation of ticket demand for the “Ego Death” material across the Western Hemisphere [3].
“The tour will visit at least 24 cities across North and South America.”
The transition to amphitheaters for the 'Live in the Americas' tour indicates that Williams' solo brand has reached a commercial scale independent of Paramore. By touring both North and South America in a single fall circuit, she is consolidating her international market presence following the 2025 release of 'Ego Death'.
