South African star Tyla has officially announced the A*POP World Tour, a 34-date global trek in support of her second studio album, A*POP. The tour crosses four continents — Europe, the UK, North America and Africa — between 2026 and 2027, marking the biggest headline run of her career so far. For her full story, see our Tyla biography.
The trek kicked off on October 12, 2026 at the Zénith in Paris, where Royal MusiQ joined as the special guest for the opening night, according to reports. With the Europe and UK leg now underway, the tour heads to North America in November 2026 before wrapping up with a home-continent finale in Africa in January 2027.

The A*POP Album
The A*POP World Tour takes its name from Tyla's second studio album, A*POP, which arrived on July 24, 2026 via FAX and Epic Records.
Fans can expect the tour setlist to draw heavily from the new album alongside her earlier hits. For the lyrics to one of her recent collaborations, see our Body Go lyrics.
Why This Tour Matters
Beyond the numbers, the A*POP World Tour cements Tyla's status as a global headliner. As the first international artist to headline the WNBA All-Star halftime show, she has already broken new ground, and a 34-date trek across four continents shows the scale of her ambition.
The tour also brings her music back to African audiences, with the January 2027 dates in Cape Town and Johannesburg set to be a home-continent celebration. For more on the music she has been teasing, see our Opalite lyrics.
