Nine-time Grammy winner Billie Eilish, one of the biggest stars on the world music scene, is coming to Prague’s O2 arena next year. She will return on June 1, 2025, to present her latest album, Hit Me Hard and Soft.

For the release of her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, due out May 17, Eilish announced an arena tour called Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour. She will first tour North America from September to December 2024.

The tour heads to Australia in February 2025 before European, British, and Irish arena shows from April through July 2025. Full tour dates can be found at billieeilish.com.

Eilish and her brother Finneas O’Connell collaborated to co-write Hit Me Hard and Soft, and O'Connell also produced the album. In March, Eilish made history by winning two Academy Awards at 22. She won the Best Original Song Oscar along with O’Connell for "What Was I Made For?" which was featured on the Barbie soundtrack.

Eilish played at Prague’s O2 arena on August 20, 2019. Initially, the concert was to be held at the Forum Karlín, but due to high demand, it was moved to the larger O2 arena. Over 15,000 people attended this sold-out show.

Live Nation also announced the comeback tour This Life on Tour by British pop band Take That on Monday, which once counted British singer Robbie Williams among its members.
