Pop icon Kylie Minogue is back in the spotlight with the announcement of her biggest world tour in over a decade, along with the release of her new album Tension II. Scheduled for release on October 18, the album will include 13 tracks, following the success of her 2023 hit single Padam Padam. The tour will kick off in February 2025 in Australia before heading to Asia and the UK, with 20 dates already confirmed.
Minogue expressed her excitement about reuniting with fans, stating that she can't wait to celebrate the "Tension era and more" on stage. The tour has generated widespread excitement, particularly within her large LGBTQ+ fanbase, but it has also led to some scheduling conflicts. In Australia, for example, her shows coincide with the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade, creating a dilemma for fans eager to attend both events.
The announcement comes during a career renaissance for Minogue, who has enjoyed renewed success with her latest album Tension and her viral hit Padam Padam. Earlier this year, she won her second Grammy Award, 20 years after her first, and received the Brits' Global Icon Award, cementing her status as one of pop music's enduring stars.
As her world tour approaches, Minogue is riding high on the momentum of her career resurgence. With additional concert dates expected to be announced soon, fans around the world are eagerly anticipating what promises to be one of her most exciting tours yet.
