Hayley Williams announced a solo tour titled "The Hayley Williams Show" on May 7, 2026 [2].
The tour marks a significant pivot for the Paramore lead singer as she promotes her solo career and her recent album, "Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party." By showcasing material from all three of her solo albums, Williams aims to establish a distinct identity for her current musical era.
The tour is scheduled to run from September through November 2026 [1]. It will cover a wide geographic range, including dates across North America and Latin America. Confirmed stops include major hubs such as New York City, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C., as well as Brazil and Champions Square in New Orleans.
Williams will be joined by supporting acts Magdalena Bay and Rico Nasty. While some reports vary on the full lineup of opening performers, these two acts are primary features of the tour's supporting cast. The singer said the performances would include "exciting surprises" for the audience.
This solo venture allows Williams to step away from the band dynamic of Paramore to focus on the specific sonic landscapes of her individual work. The inclusion of Latin American dates underscores her global reach and the international demand for her solo discography.
Tickets and specific venue details for the fall dates were released alongside the announcement. The schedule emphasizes a concentrated window of performance, spanning three months [1], to bring her latest solo material to a diverse set of international markets.
“The tour will showcase music from her three solo albums and include "exciting surprises."”
This tour signals Williams' transition from being primarily viewed as a frontwoman for a band to a standalone pop and alternative entity. By bundling material from three different solo projects into one show, she is consolidating her solo brand and testing the commercial viability of her independent work in major international markets outside the U.S.
