Canadian pop star Tate McRae has announced her third album, and she's bringing it to Canada next summer.

The Alberta-born, California-based singer has So Close To What for a February 21 release, followed by a world tour with several Canadian dates.


The Miss Possessive Tour will come through Canada in August 2025, with arena concerts in Vancouver, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Toronto and Ottawa.

The tour marks McRae's first major string of Canadian dates since hitting No. 1 in Canada with "greedy" in 2023. Her Think Later world tour brought her to Toronto's Budweiser Stage and the Calgary Stampede this past summer, but this tour will give more Canadian fans the chance to see the country's biggest recent breakthrough star live.

Diljit Dosanjh Has Arrived: The Rise of a Global Star

The first time the Punjabi singer and actor came to Canada, he vowed to play at a stadium. With the Dil-Luminati Tour in 2024, he made it happen – setting a record in the process. As part of Billboard's Global No. 1s series, Dosanjh talks about his meteoric rise and his history-making year.

Throughout his history-making Dil-Luminati Tour, Diljit Dosanjh has a line that he’s repeated proudly on stage, “Punjabi Aa Gaye Oye” – or, “The Punjabis have arrived!”

The slogan has recognized not just the strides made by Diljit, but the doors his astounding success has opened for Punjabi music and culture.
