Olivia Rodrigo announces world tour: two dates in Italy. Watch the video for "Drop Dead"

As anticipation builds for the new album "You Seem Pretty Sad For A Girl So In Love", out June 12th, Olivia Rodrigo has unveiled the dates for her upcoming world tour, "The Unraveled Tour". The tour, built around the new record, will also include two Italian dates. The shows are scheduled for April 27th and 28th, 2027 at the Unipol Forum in Milan. The Italian dates are part of an overall itinerary of 65 concerts across North America, Europe and the UK.

General ticket sales will open on Thursday, May 7 at 12pm on the artist's official website. For the European dates, there will be a presale phase accessible by registering or by pre-ordering the new album: anyone who has already bought the record will automatically receive a dedicated code.

There will also be an early presale window for American Express cardholders, valid for all tour dates. In this case, tickets will be available from 12pm on Tuesday, May 5 until 10:22pm on Wednesday, May 6, while supplies last.

In recent days, Olivia Rodrigo released the new single "Drop Dead", the first taste of her new album. The track includes a direct reference to Robert Smith, who already joined Rodrigo on stage at Glastonbury 2025, explicitly quoting "Just Like Heaven" by the Cure.

The video is set at the Palace of Versailles, where Rodrigo wanders through the palace grounds with a guitar and headphones, alternating between images of solitude and romantic abandon. The lyrics contain direct references to the location ("Sembri un angelo sulle mura di Versailles") and to a rediscovered sense of vitality.

On Instagram, Rodrigo wrote: "Adoro questa canzone!!! It's the first chapter of the new story and it makes me want to jump around, roll the windows down and kiss someone.

Olivia Rodrigo's third album is once again the product of her collaboration with producer Daniel Nigro, who was already by her side on the previous records "SOUR" (certified double platinum in Italy) and "GUTS" (platinum). The announcement was preceded by a simple yet effective visual campaign: a wall painted purple in the middle of Los Angeles, which then turned pink within a few days, instantly sparking fans' attention and the first theories about the new project.

Rodrigo's return ranks among the most anticipated events of the year. Having surpassed 36 million copies sold worldwide, won three Grammy Awards and cemented a dominant presence on streaming platforms, the singer-songwriter now faces a major test.

In just a few years, Olivia Rodrigo has built a top-tier commercial and critical profile: 14 Grammy nominations, including nods in the major categories for "SOUR" and "GUTS", and three Grammy wins for Best New Artist, Best Pop Vocal Album and Best Pop Solo Performance. On top of that come cross-genre honors – from the American Music Awards to Billboard Women in Music, as well as ASCAP and Variety Hitmakers – plus international awards such as the Billboard Awards, BRIT, Juno and NME.

On the live front, her track record has been just as solid: from her first global tour in 2022, which sold out in 40 cities across North America and Europe, to the "GUTS World Tour", which wrapped in summer 2025 after more than 100 dates and over 60 cities in 21 countries. A run that earned her Billboard's Touring Artist of the Year title.

"SOUR" marked a record-breaking debut, opening at number one on the Billboard 200 and maintaining a lengthy stay in the top 10, while also topping the charts in numerous international markets. "GUTS", called "an instant classic" by Rolling Stone, matched that commercial impact: a straight-to-number-one debut on the Billboard 200, with the single "vampire" simultaneously topping the Hot 100 and Rodrigo topping the Artist 100, completing a rare triple crown. She is also the youngest artist in Hot 100 history to debut with three number-one songs ("vampire", "drivers license", "good 4 u"), while every other track on the album reached the top 40.

This new chapter therefore arrives at a moment of full commercial and creative maturity for the American pop star, fresh off her collaboration with Robert Smith of the Cure, with expectations running high on both the artistic and commercial fronts.
