The tour announcement comes after the singer announced her next album ‘Tension II’ – the sequel to her hit 2023 album ‘Tension’ – which will include nine new tracks. The LP is set for release on October 18 via BMG and is available for pre-order here.

Speaking to NME in Singapore ahead of her headline performance at the country’s F1 Grand Prix, Minogue shared that the upcoming album is “kind of a hybrid” between a deluxe edition and a new album, one that “was never intended to be another volume of work”.

The pop icon released her latest single ‘Lights Camera Action’ last week and has previewed the tracks ‘Edge of Saturday Night’ with The Blessed Madonna, her Bebe Rexha and Tove Lo collaboration ‘My Oh My’, ‘Midnight Ride’ with Orville Peck and Diplo, and ‘Dance Alone’ with Sia.

When ‘Tension’ originally dropped, NME wrote in a four-star review: “The result isn’t Minogue’s most cohesive or revealing LP, but it does feel driven by its own internal logic. Ultimately, ‘Tension’ plays like a fun, flirty night out with an old friend who never burdens you with her problems.

“Whether you’ve known Minogue for a lifetime – or just since ‘Padam Padam’ – you’ll want to join the party.”

‘Tension’ included the aforementioned smash hit ‘Padam Padam’, which ended up landing at Number Three on NME‘s best songs of 2023 (and was very nearly given to Rita Ora). Minogue described its “seismic” success as “overwhelming”, saying: “It’s an incredible time. It doesn’t really feel real to me yet because it’s all just happening.

“‘Padam’ was just seismic. The earth was moving and now this is ‘Tension’s first play. This is very exciting.”
