Hilary Duff is going on the road again.

The returning pop star announced an extensive global outing titled 'The Lucky Me' World Tour, ahead of her highly anticipated new album, luck… or something, arriving Feb. 20 via Atlantic Records/Warner Music Canada. It marks her first full-scale global headline run in almost two decades.


This year, Duff’s worldwide trek kicks off on June 22 in West Palm Beach, Florida. The run includes 10 Canadian dates across seven provinces, starting with Toronto's newly minted RBC Amphitheatre on Aug. 12 and 13 before Duff returns stateside.

In 2027, Duff will perform a string of shows across the country, starting with two nights at Vancouver's Rogers Arena (Jan. 22 and 23). Then, she'll hit Calgary’s Scotiabank Saddledome (Jan. 26), Edmonton's Rogers Place (Jan. 27), Saskatoon's SaskTel Centre (Jan. 29) and Winnipeg’s Canada Life Centre (Jan. 30).

In February, Duff heads to Southern Canada, making stops at Hamilton’s renovated TD Coliseum (Feb. 2), Ottawa’s Canadian Tire Centre (Feb. 4) and Montreal’s Centre Bell (Feb. 5), before wrapping up on the east coast at Halifax’s Scotiabank Centre on Feb. 7. Exactly a year from today, the tour concludes in Mexico City.

Vancouver pop singer Jade LeMac — who recently hit the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 with “Running Home” — and British synth-pop duo La Roux will join Duff for her Toronto date. Charting B.C. singer-songwriter Lauren Spencer Smith will support Duff across next year’s Canadian leg.

“The name says it all. I truly feel so lucky to be able to be onstage again in front of all of you beautiful people. I can’t wait! See you on the lucky me tour … ✨🪩🍒,” Duff wrote on Instagram.

To ease into playing live shows, Duff performed four sold-out intimate concerts on the Small Rooms, Big Nerves tour earlier this year. The hot-ticket mini-tour included an intimate stop at Toronto’s History venue, in which Billboard Canada was in attendance.

Duff teased the world tour at her final show in Los Angeles when she brought fans onstage to re-enact the TikTok-viral “With Love” dance.

The last year has been a whirlwind for the former Disney star. Last September, Duff announced that she would be returning to music after signing a new deal with Atlantic Records/Warner Music Canada. Her comeback single, “Mature,” peaked at No. 62 on the Canadian Hot 100.

Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, Feb. 20, at 10 am local, following various presales beginning on Feb. 18 — sign up here for access.

Sharon Osbourne Confirms That Ozzfest Will Be Resurrected In Ozzy’s Home Town of Birmingham in 2027 Before Coming to North America

"We wanna do two days in Aston Villa," the late metal icon's wife/manager said on the family's podcast this week.

Sharon Osbourne has revealed more about her plans to resurrect Ozzfest. On the new episode of The Osbournes podcast on Wednesday (March 4), Sharon sat down to offer the first concrete details about the return of the heavy metal festival that has been on hiatus since 2018.

“Ozzfest! Coming back!” Sharon said, just days after first lighting the fuse for the news at the 2026 MIDEM conference in Cannes, France, where she announced “yes, absolutely. Yeah, we’re gonna do it.” She told Jack that the plan is to reboot the festival in 2027, launching it with a two-day event at Villa Park, the home grounds of the Aston Villa Football Club in Ozzy Osbourne‘s hometown of Birmingham, U.K.; that sacred ground was also the site of Osbourne’s final show, the all-star Back to the Beginning blowout last July.
