News: ‘The Lucky Me Tour’: Hilary Duff Returns to Arenas Worldwide


Hilary Duff

Nearly two decades after her last full-scale global headline run, Hilary Duff is returning to the arena stage. Ahead of the release of her sixth studio album luck… or something on February 20, Duff has announced the lucky me tour, a seven-country run that stretches from June 2026 through February 2027.

The tour begins June 22 at West Palm Beach’s iTHINK Financial Amphitheatre before moving through North America, the UK and Ireland, Australia and New Zealand, and Mexico. Highlights include Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, Morrison’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, New York’s Madison Square Garden, London’s The O2 and Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena. It marks her first extensive headline trek since the mid-2000s, following last month’s sold-out “Small Rooms, Big Nerves” dates, which reintroduced Duff to live audiences in more intimate settings.

That initial run culminated in Los Angeles with a playful nod to her 2007 single “With Love”, as Duff invited fans onstage to recreate its viral choreography. The gesture felt symbolic: a pop figure reconnecting with the catalogue that defined her early career while preparing to move forward.

luck… or something is her first album since 2015’s Breathe In. Breathe Out., and her first release since signing to Atlantic Records. The record has been previewed by two singles. “Mature”, an autofictional reflection on early romantic missteps, was praised by outlets including Vogue for pushing her sound forward while retaining her melodic instincts. Follow-up single “Roommates”, co-written with her husband, Grammy-winning producer Matthew Koma, has been described by Rolling Stone as one of her strongest tracks to date.

Duff’s return arrives with a sense of recalibration rather than nostalgia. After first rising to prominence as the lead in the Disney Channel’s Lizzie McGuire and launching her recording career with 2003’s Metamorphosis, she built a catalogue that moved from teen pop to more self-directed dance-pop on 2007’s Dignity. Since then, her work has spanned television, film and publishing, including a central role in Younger.

With the lucky me tour, Duff steps back into the global pop circuit at full scale. Supported in multiple territories by La Roux, alongside Jade LeMac and Lauren Spencer Smith on select legs, the run signals an artist returning on her own terms, balancing legacy with a new body of work.

General on-sales in the US, Canada, Ireland and the UK start Friday, February 20 at 10 am (local), in Mexico at 11 am (local), and in Australia/New Zealand at 1 pm (local). For complete details and ticket information, visit www.hilaryduff.com/live.
