Radical Optimism Tour
The Radical Optimism Tour was the third concert tour by English singer Dua Lipa in support of her third studio album, Radical Optimism (2024). The tour commenced in Singapore on 5 November 2024 and concluded in Mexico City, Mexico, on 5 December 2025, consisting of 81 shows. It featured headlining performances at various festivals, including ZFIC and I-Days Milano, as well as Lipa's own music festival, Sunny Hill, which takes place in Pristina, Kosovo.
An updated version of the tour was produced months after the shows held in Asia during late 2024, being divided into four sections and an encore with the four classical elements as the central key of the concert production. The set list primarily consisted of songs from Radical Optimism, with some others from her 2017 eponymous debut studio album and Future Nostalgia (2020), while the tour's wardrobe included custom outfits by the Attico, Balenciaga, Chanel, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Valentino.
The tour received highly positive reviews from critics, who praised Lipa's performance skills, vocal delivery, and charisma during interaction sections of the show with the audience. The Radical Optimism Tour also experienced commercial success, earning US$141.1 million within its first 59 concerts and thus becoming the highest-grossing tour of the singer to date, according to sales reports provided by Billboard.
On 19 March 2024, Lipa announced four promotional standalone shows and several summer festival appearances across Europe, with ticketing going on sale on 21 March, in addition to US performances at the iHeartRadio and Austin City Limits music festivals in September and October, respectively. On 28 May 2024, she announced the tour, with dates for concerts in Asia scheduled for that same year's last two months; tickets went on sale on 11 June.
On 1 July 2024, Lipa announced her first-ever headlining show at Wembley Stadium, London. Ticketing became available on 12 July, and an additional show in the same venue was announced right after the first one was sold out. On 12 September, she announced concert dates for the tour in Oceania, Europe, and North America. Artist pre-sale and general sale were announced at the same time. Six days later, additional dates in Australia, New Zealand, France, Belgium, the UK, and the US were announced, due to high demand. On 8 November 2024, she announced her concert in Jakarta for the following day was cancelled, citing safety concerns pertaining to the show's staging. Moreover, Lipa was announced as the headliner for the 2024 edition of the Zomato Feeding India Concert, as well as for the 2025 lineups of I-Days Milano and the Kosovo-based Sunny Hill, her own organised music festival jointly with her father, Dukagjin Lipa.
In March 2025, Kita Alexander was announced as the supporting act for shows in Australia and New Zealand. On 1 April 2025, eight stadium concerts in the Latin America region were announced. After selling out her shows in Santiago, Buenos Aires and Mexico City, new shows were announced in those cities, respectively. That same month, Alessi Rose was announced as a supporting act for several European concerts; Dove Cameron also served as a supporting act alongside Rose on select dates. Merk & Kremont served as co-supporting acts during the 7 June concert in Milan, Italy, alongside Rose. Cil served as the supporting act for the North American concerts. The supporting acts for select South American concerts were revealed in November: Yami Safdie in Buenos Aires and Princesa Alba in Santiago. Bu Cuarón, daughter of the Mexican filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón, performed as the supporting act for the final concert of the tour in Mexico City.
The Asia leg of the tour featured an extended main stage with two staircase structures and a backdrop including a scenic video facade, risers for her band, and an integrated lift, which allowed for dynamic entrances and transitions. The stage design for the 2025 dates was developed by American company Tait Towers, resembling the infinity symbol, with the main stage having a curved shape and platforms that evoke ocean waves. At the back of the stage there was an integrated widescreen curved at the top edge that projected visuals such as water, light, and different landscapes throughout the show. Secondary circular stages were located closer to the audience for parts of the concert that allowed greater "intimacy and interactivity", as the C-stage additionally consisted of two scissor lifts that raised Lipa to about 14.5 ft (4.4 m), and during indoor arena shows, a "floating platform" was positioned in the center of automated rings.
Meanwhile, Charm La'Donna served as choreographer, the tour's production design was handled by Matt Pitman of Pixelmappers, and video graphics based on the four elements mixed with natural and "surreal" landscapes were created by Luke Halls Studio. Cinema cameras such as the Panasonic PLV100, Sony FR7 mounted on tracks ("Waterbird tracks") and Autopod systems for dynamic camera movements were used. The Disguise GX3 Media Servers and Atmos Shogun Studio 2 were employed to control LED lighting, effects, and synchronisation. For audio engineering, a Neve 5045 system was applied on every vocal channel to tame any potential feedback problems, and Shelford Channel microphones inserted with the Red Silk feature enhanced the harmonic content generated by the highs and high-mids. Pyrotechnics, confetti cannons, smoke, and other special effects were also used.
