Hilary Duff continued her return to music on Monday morning (Nov. 10) with the announcement of her first run of live performances in more than a decade. After dropping her new single, “Mature,” last week, Duff expanded her comeback with the roll-out of a quartet of intimate January 2026 shows under the Small Rooms, Big Nerves banner.

The mini-tour is slated to kick off on Jan. 19 at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, followed by shows at HISTORY in Toronto (Jan. 24), the new Brooklyn Paramount theater (Jan. 27) and the Wiltern in Los Angeles (Jan. 29).


Fans can sign up for an artist pre-sale now here through Wednesday (Nov. 12) at 6 p.m. ET; no codes are needed and anyone who signs up can join the sale. The artist pre-sale begins on Friday (Nov. 14) at 3 p.m. local time here.

“It’s happening,” Duff said in a statement about the dates. “I’m over the moon to be stepping on stage again. I’ve got some new songs that I can’t wait to share with you and of course some old favorites we can scream together. It’s been a minute and I’ve missed you. Let’s make some mems.”

After taking nearly a decade off from music to focus on acting, Duff stormed back last week with the bright pop tune “Mature,” a song the singer said is a “little conversation that my present self is having with my younger self. The two of us are reflecting on a past experience and sending love to each other. It’s a chuckle, a wink, and a sense of being grateful that we are sure footed in where we landed.”

The song was co-written by Duff’s husband, producer Matthew Koma, along with Halsey collaborator Madison Love. Lizzie McGuire veteran Duff’s last solo single was 2016’s “Little Lies,” followed by an assist on Koma and RAC’s 202 song “Never Let You Go.” Duff, who recently signed a new label deal with Atlantic Records, has not released a full-length album since 2015’s Breathe In., Breathe Out and the label announced that an upcoming docuseries will chronicle the singer’s path back to music-making.
