Zara Larsson concert chronology

The Venus Tour was the fourth concert tour by Swedish singer Zara Larsson, launched in support of her fourth studio album, Venus (2024).[1][2]. The tour began on 16 February 2024 in Manchester, England, at the Manchester Academy, and concluded on 6 November 2024 at Webster Hall in New York City, United States[3][4][5]. The tour was produced and promoted by Live Nation Entertainment, and featured performances across Europe, North America, and Brazil[6].

Announced on 3 November 2023 through Larsson’s official Instagram account, the tour marked her return to the global stage following the Poster Girl Tour (2022). With 29 shows across two legs, the Venus Tour showcased Larsson’s evolution as a pop artist, combining theatrical staging with energetic choreography, elaborate visuals, and a setlist highlighting songs from Venus alongside fan favorites from her previous albums[7]

Background

[edit]

After releasing Venus on 9 February 2024, Zara Larsson announced the accompanying tour shortly thereafter, aiming to celebrate her new musical era with fans worldwide. The album, which included singles such as “Can't Tame Her” and “You Love Who You Love,” was praised for blending bold pop production with emotional storytelling.

The tour was developed as a large-scale pop production, designed to reflect the celestial and romantic themes of the album. Larsson collaborated with creative directors and choreographers from her previous tours to deliver a show that balanced high-energy dance numbers with intimate, stripped-back performances.

In interviews leading up to the tour, Larsson expressed excitement about reconnecting with audiences post-pandemic, emphasizing the importance of live performance in her artistic identity.
