The Chicks announce 2023 world arena tour

The Chicks have announced a 37-date world tour, with dates in the UK, Europe and North America.

The trio – formerly known as the Dixie Chicks – will kick off the tour on June 20 in Olso, Norway at Spektrum, eventually finishing up at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena on September 18.

The band’s UK run of shows will be The Chicks’ first dates in the UK for seven years and support will come from Maren Morris.

General tickets for all UK and European dates are on sale on Friday, February 17 at 10am local. You’ll be able to purchase tickets here.

“This last year on the road has been a whirlwind for us, but it’s time to bring the party to the UK and Europe,” The Chicks said of the dates. “We can’t wait to see everyone and play for all our fans across the pond – it’s been a long time coming, and we can’t wait to get back!”

They shared two singles from the album in the lead-up to its release, starting with the record’s title track on March 4. It was their first new song since the 2007 non-album single, ‘The Neighbor’. ‘Julianna Calm Down’ followed, hitting streaming services on April 3.
