Ultrasound World Tour
The Ultrasound World Tour is the fourth concert tour by New Zealand singer and songwriter Lorde, supporting her fourth studio album, Virgin (2025). Featuring arena concerts across North America, Europe, and Oceania, the tour began on 17 September 2025 in Austin, Texas, United States, and is set to conclude on 1 September 2026 in Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg.
New Zealand singer and songwriter Lorde embarked on her third concert tour, the Solar Power Tour, in April 2022. The tour spanned 79 shows across five legs, concluding at the Praia Fluvial do Taboão in Portugal in August 2023. In April 2025, Lorde announced her comeback with the release of "What Was That", the lead single from her fourth studio album, Virgin, which was released on 27 June 2025. On 8 May 2025, Lorde announced the Ultrasound World Tour, featuring arena concerts across North America and Europe from September to December 2025. The opening acts are the Japanese House, Chanel Beads, Empress Of, and Nilüfer Yanya, as well as Virgin's co-producers Blood Orange and Jim-E Stack. On May 14, extra dates for Amsterdam, London, Washington, D.C., Nashville, and Minneapolis were added due to demand. French musician Oklou was initially announced as an opener for the original Esch-sur-Alzette date, but the concert was postponed without Oklou as an opener for the rescheduled date. On June 13, two shows in Brooklyn were announced.
Discussing the tour in a newsletter message sent to fans, Lorde wrote, "Every show I play is a collaboration between you and me. We meet in a room and we make music together, our bodies and the machines in search of something bigger together. 12 years of meeting up and making sound that's just for us. Since last time I've been stripping away unnecessary layers, finding us more room to move. I think that Ultrasound could be our masterpiece. Very proud and excited to be bringing my most talented friends in support. Come see what's under the skin." Following the announcement, some media publications noted the absence of New Zealand in the itinerary. In response to an Instagram post highlighting this omission, Lorde commented, "Cam awwwwwwn now lol", and added, "Just the beginning." Australian and New Zealand shows were later announced on 11 July. On 23 October, dates in three Mexican cities were revealed. On 27 January 2026, a date in Pula, Croatia was announced.
This set list is from the 17 September 2025 concert at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas. It is not representative of all shows during the tour.
During the tour, Lorde engaged in several philanthropic and political actions. In February 2026, she donated approximately $204,000 in merchandise proceeds from her Minneapolis shows to immigrant rights organizations, including the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee and the Immigrant Defense Network. The donation was announced alongside her public support for the “ICE Out” movement, which criticizes U.S. immigration enforcement practices.
The tour was also associated with political expression and related incidents at live events. At a concert at the O2 Arena in London, venue staff confiscated clothing worn by attendees displaying pro-Palestinian messages, citing a misinterpretation of venue policy. The venue later issued a public apology, stating that no such restriction existed and that the decision had been made in error. Lorde also expressed support of Palestinian causes during performances on the tour. During the song "Team", the stage lit up in the colours of the Palestinian flag, and at the New York City show, Lorde yelled "free fucking Palestine".
