Billie Eilish announces 2022 arena tour

Two or three years later than she was due for it, Billie Eilish will embark on her first arena- and stadium-headlining tour in early 2022.

The 19-year-old Los Angeles bedroom-pop singer — who took home many of the top Grammy Awards the past two years and is right up there with Taylor Swift as the biggest pop star at the moment — announced 50 dates across North America and Europe starting Feb. 3 in New Orleans.

She's calling it Happier Than Ever, the World Tour, named after her perhaps sardonically titled sophomore album "Happier Than Ever," due out June 30.

Tickets for the U.S. dates are due to go on sale next Friday, May 28, at noon local time, with a presale option through the Ticketmaster Verified Fan program Wednesday starting at noon through 10 p.m. local time.

Eilish will return to the stage later this year playing a few of the biggest festivals in America, including the Governor's Ball in New York in September and Austin City Limits in Austin, Texas, in October.

The rollout of her new album has already begun with "Your Power," a serene and downbeat single that's already racked up more than 150 million streams in just three weeks.
