Avril Lavigne concert chronology

The Head Above Water Tour was the sixth concert tour by Canadian singer Avril Lavigne. Launched in support of her sixth studio album, Head Above Water (2019), the tour consisted of 15 shows in North America and was her first concert tour in five years, after The Avril Lavigne Tour.[1] Initially scheduled to end mid-2020 with a total of 43 concerts, concerts in Asia and European legs were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background[]

The tour was announced by Lavigne on her social media on June 24, 2019.[2] She also announced that a portion of the proceeds from every ticket sold on the tour will be donated to The Avril Lavigne Foundation to raise awareness and fund treatment for those in need.[3] Due to the high demand, extra concerts were added in London,[4][5] Milan[citation needed] and Tokyo[citation needed]. The concert in Vienna was moved to Wiener Stadthalle, due to high demand in the country.[citation needed] The shows in Italy and Switzerland also had venues upgraded due to the demand.[citation needed] Tickets for Berlin and Cologne shows were sold out three months in advance.[citation needed]
