Olivia Rodrigo will perform her GUTS world tour at Acrisure Arena on Friday, February 23, 2024.
Multi-platinum, three-time Grammy award-winning artist Olivia Rodrigo announced her highly anticipated GUTS world tour in support of her second studio album, GUTS, which was released September 8 via Geffen Records to critical acclaim. Produced by Live Nation, the massive global 2024 tour kicks off its 57-date run on Friday, February 23 in greater Palm Springs, CA at Acrisure Arena.
Following the incredible success of her 2022 debut tour The SOUR Tour, the GUTS world tour will be Olivia's first arena tour, taking her to iconic venues around the world including Madison Square Garden, Kia Forum, Sportpaleis, The O2 and more. During this run, she will be performing multiple nights in various cities, including two nights in New York, Los Angeles, and London.
One of the most highly awaited albums of the year, GUTS arrived as the follow-up to Rodrigo's 4x Platinum 2021 full-length debut SOUR and features her No. 1 hit "vampire" and the new focus track "get him back!" Like "vampire," GUTS' second single "bad idea, right?" was named a Best New Track by Pitchfork, who hailed the latter as "one of the best pop performances of the year." Released last month alongside its B-movie-inspired video, "bad idea right?" also drew raves from the likes of Rolling Stone (who called it a "sugary headbanger") and the New York Times (who praised the track as a "bright, kaleidoscopic head-rush of a pop song…" in its weekly column "The Playlist").
Critical Acclaim for GUTS:
"Rodrigo is a songwriter of rather astonishing purity — even in her most stylized lyrics, she never wanders far from the unformed gut-kick of a feeling." - The New York Times
"… Guts is another instant classic, with her most ambitious, intimate, and messy songs yet. Olivia's pop-punk bangers are full of killer lines" - Rolling Stone
"Guts is a no-skip album" - USA Today
"All over Guts, she's so witty, so pissed off, so angsty at the same time, the way only a rock star can be. And this is the album of a truly brilliant rock star." - Rolling Stone
"With Guts, Rodrigo has released the most complete pop album of the year."- Billboard
