Fresh off the reveal of his highly anticipated fifth studio album, Konnakol, Zayn Malik has unveiled the itinerary for his most ambitious concert trek to date. Announced this Thursday (Feb. 5), the global excursion marks a significant milestone for the former One Direction standout, as he prepares to headline arenas and stadiums across the globe for the first time since embarking on his solo journey in 2015.
Produced by Live Nation, the 31-city odyssey is set to commence on May 12 at Manchester’s AO Arena. Following a string of U.K. dates throughout May, the “Konnakol Tour” will traverse Mexico in June before descending upon North American arenas through July and August. The U.S. leg is slated to kick off on July 19 at Philadelphia’s Xfinity Mobile Arena, visiting major markets including Chicago, Los Angeles, and Nashville, eventually concluding its summer run at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena on Sept. 5.
In October, the singer will head to South America for a series of high-profile performances before returning to the States for a final victory lap in November. The marathon tour is scheduled to reach its grand finale at the Kaseya Center in Miami on Nov. 20.
Fans recently caught a glimpse of the new material during Zayn’s debut residency at Park MGM in Las Vegas. The full album is slated for arrival on April 17, preceded by the lead single “Die for Me,” which drops this Friday (Feb. 6).
Early access to tickets begins with the Zayn VIP KEY pre-sale on Tuesday, Feb. 10, at noon local time in all respective markets. Current VIP KEY holders will be automatically notified with unique access codes via the dedicated app. Fans who haven’t yet registered have until Sunday, Feb. 8, at 11:59 p.m. ET to sign up via his official website. Following a series of mid-week pre-sales, the general public on-sale will commence on Feb. 13.
Konnakol serves as the successor to 2024’s Room Under the Stairs, which reached No. 15 on the Billboard 200. “It’s that time again; I have been lucky enough to create a fifth studio album,” Zayn shared in a press statement. “While ‘Konnakol’ is traditionally defined as the art of vocal percussion, its personal significance to me is much more profound. It represents a sound that captures the reverberation of an era before language itself existed.”
