\n\tLily Allen has rethought the routing for her upcoming tour in support of her acclaimed West End Girl<\/em> album. After playing a series of North American theaters in the spring, Allen had announced a run of arenas in the fall. But this week, she\u2019s downsized a majority of the shows to arenas and amphitheaters, as well as canceling her planned stop in Montreal.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tExplore\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tLily Allen\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n See latest videos, charts and news<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n\tIn an Instagram post announcing the change on Monday (July 13), Allen wrote, \u201cI am so beyond excited to bring West End Girl<\/em> back across the pond this September!! It has been so surreal playing this album to such epic crowds this summer.. Thank you for singing every word with me.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\tRelated\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tWatch Millie Bobby Brown, Ice Spice & Lil Yachty Join Drake’s ‘Shabang’ TikTok Challenge\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tElena Rose on Karol G’s ‘Genuine’ Invitation to Open Her Viajando Por El Mundo Tropitour: ‘I Feel Like I’m Going on Tour With a Friend’\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tToby Keith’s ‘Courtesy of the Red, White & Blue’ Is Now His Highest-Peaking Hot 100 Hit Thanks to 4th of July Return\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n \n\tShe added, \u201cWe have a few updates since we first announced this leg of the tour earlier in the year. I am SO excited to say we are now coming to Seattle, tickets on sale July 24, 10AM local.\u201d Allen also noted that shows in Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Vancouver have been adjusted down, informing fans that if they have tickets for those shows they will automatically be refunded in the next 5-7 working days and enrolled into a presale that will go live at 10 a.m. local time on July 22; a general onsale will follow on July 24 at 10 a.m. local.<\/p>\n \n\tAllen also apologized to her fans in Montreal, saying, \u201cI am so sad to say we tried our hardest but will not be able to make it to you this time. NY, Boston, Toronto, Detroit, Minneapolis, Red Rocks \u2013 you are staying as is. Tickets on sale now :))\u201d The singer did not give any reason for the downscaling of the tour, which played theaters and concert halls across the U.K., Europe and the U.S. earlier this year, bumping up to arenas in the U.K. during a recent run; at press time a spokesperson for Allen had not returned a request for additional comment on the tour date shuffle.<\/p>\n \n\tThe fall North American tour is now slated to kick off on Sept. 3 at Madison Square Garden in New York, followed by a Sept. 4 stop at MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston. After shows in Philadelphia at the TD Pavilion at Highmark Mann (originally at 21,000-capacity Xfinity Mobile Arena), Toronto, Detroit, Chicago (now at the 3,500-capacity Chicago Theatre vs. the 23,500-capacity United Center), Minneapolis, Morrison, Colo., Los Angeles (5,900-capacity Greek Theatre vs. the 18,000-capacity Kia Forum), Oakland (3,000-capacity Paramount Theatre vs. 21,500-capacity Chase Center in San Francisco) and Seattle, the outing is slated to wrap up on Sept. 28 at the Orpheum in Vancouver.<\/p>\n \n\tAllen has been eschewing her back catalog on the tour in favor of playing the new 2025 album in chronological order. She recently defended her artistic choice after someone who attended one of her shows at the O2 Arena in London complained about length of the show, the lack of an opening act and Allen not addressing the audience.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cThe show has always been advertised as \u2018Lily Allen performs West End Girl,’\u201d Allen wrote. \u201cI was a few mins late as my tights were laddered and i had to change them,\u201d she continued. \u201cThe show is just over an hour as it\u2019s just the album in its entirety. It\u2019s my artistic choice not to talk to the audience, the fourth wall helps with the storytelling. Most people find it to be effective. \u201cI don\u2019t want anyone to feel ripped off. Everyone on this tour is really working very hard to give people the best show we possibly can, and i\u2019m extremely proud of it.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tCheck out the revised fall 2026 North American tour dates below.<\/p>\n [analyse_source url=”https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/pop\/lily-allen-scales-down-west-end-girl-tour-arenas-theaters-1236294482\/”]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [analyse_image type=”featured” src=”https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/P103LAD9-e1774376117600.jpg?w=1024″] Trending on Billboard Lily Allen has rethought the routing for her upcoming tour in support of her acclaimed West End Girl album.
