Happier Than Ever, The World Tour

**Happier Than Ever, The World Tour** was Billie Eilish's sixth headlining tour, in support of her sophomore studio album, *Happier Than Ever*.
It was the followup to her Where Do We Go? World Tour, which was postponed after a few shows due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The tour included concerts in North America, Europe, Asia, Oceania and Latin America, beginning on February 3, 2022 and concluding on April 2, 2023.

## Background

### Initial Announcement

Eilish officially announced the tour on May 21, 2021 via her official YouTube channel and tickets for the first few shows went on sale soon after.

### Added Dates

* Following the success of these sales with many venues selling out quickly, further dates were added to the tour to satisfy demand.
* Later on, another leg of the tour in Oceania was also added with the dates forming the end of the tour.

### Asia

Dates were also announced in June 2022 for concerts in locations across Asia, with Eilish performing her first live concerts in the continent in August of the same year.

### "Hometown Encore"

*Happier Than Ever: The Hometown Encore* tour dates were announced by Eilish on her official social media accounts in October 2022, originally consisting of shows on the 15th and 16th of December. A third and final date was added for December 13th around a week later, due to popular demand.
