Background and development

The tour was announced on February 4, 2019, via Eilish's official Instagram account. In the same post, Eilish revealed that Denzel Curry would be the opening act, and her brother Finneas O'Connell would join her for select Canadian stops. The post also hinted at blurred international dates. [2] [ non-primary source needed ]

Shortly thereafter, Australian tour dates were announced, and due to overwhelming demand, additional dates and larger venues were added to accommodate the larger audiences. [3] Four days later, Eilish announced further international dates on her official Twitter account. [4]

During the first show at Coachella, Eilish faced technical difficulties and had to cut "When I Was Older" and "Xanny" from the setlist. [5]

Eilish performed her then-new single "Everything I Wanted" live for the first time during the tour's final stop in Mexico City. [6]
