Olivia Rodrigo Kicks Off Unraveled Tour and Joins Jingle Ball 2026
Olivia Rodrigo begins her biggest headlining tour to date tonight, September 25, 2026, with the first of two shows at PeoplesBank Arena in Hartford, Connecticut. The Unraveled Tour, in support of her third album you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love, spans 59 North American dates through February 2027 before heading overseas in the spring. The trek marks Rodrigo's first major headlining run since the GUTS World Tour wrapped in 2025 and includes 10-night residencies at both Intuit Dome in Inglewood and Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
In a separate announcement, iHeartRadio revealed that Rodrigo will headline the Los Angeles stop of its annual Jingle Ball 2026 tour on December 4 at Intuit Dome. The holiday concert series, presented by Capital One, will hit nine cities this December, including Dallas, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Boston, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and Nashville, which joins the routing for the first time. Rodrigo is also scheduled to perform at the Jingle Ball in Washington, D.C., on December 14, according to the full routing released by Pollstar.
Jingle Ball 2026 Lineups and Ticket Information
The Jingle Ball lineup varies by city and features a mix of pop, rock, and hip-hop acts. The Los Angeles show will include Hilary Duff, RAYE, OneRepublic, SIENNA SPIRO, Freya Skye, Bella Kay, Stella Lefty, and The Beaches alongside Rodrigo. The New York edition at Madison Square Garden on December 11 will feature Duff, SOMBR, Alex Warren, Charlie Puth, Teddy Swims, SIENNA SPIRO, TOMORROW X TOGETHER & YEONJUN, Stella Lefty, Freya Skye, with special guest performances from Bella Kay and The Beaches.

Capital One cardholders get first access to Jingle Ball tickets starting September 29 at 10 a.m. local time through October 1 at 10 a.m. local time. General public on-sale begins October 2 at 12 p.m. local time via Ticketmaster. For those unable to attend, ABC will air the iHeartRadio Jingle Ball 2026 holiday special in December, with streaming available the next day on Hulu, Disney+, and VOD. Eight of the nine cities will partner with the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, a non-profit that brings interactive media into pediatric hospitals.
Unraveled Tour Details and Support Acts
Rodrigo's Unraveled Tour will feature rotating support acts. Wolf Alice opens the first stretch through the end of October, while Devon Again takes over beginning in November. The Last Dinner Party will also join Rodrigo and Devon Again for the extended runs at Intuit Dome and Barclays Center. The tour includes multi-night stops in Chicago, Boston, Toronto, Philadelphia, Nashville, Los Angeles, and Brooklyn before heading overseas.
Tickets for many dates are already sold out, but fans can still find seats through third-party resale sites. According to Yahoo Entertainment, prices on Gametime start around $220 for some shows, though many start at $500, while StubHub listings begin at $260. Consequence reports that as of September 25, tickets for the opening Hartford show start around $229 on Vivid Seats, where first-time customers can save $20 off an order of $200 or more with promo code COS20.
Broader Touring Landscape
The dual announcements underscore Rodrigo's continued dominance in live music. The Unraveled Tour's 59-date scope and arena residencies reflect her evolution from breakout star to stadium-level draw. Her participation in Jingle Ball adds another high-profile holiday appearance to a schedule that already includes a massive world tour.
The Jingle Ball tour itself continues to be a major year-end fixture for iHeartRadio, blending radio-friendly acts across genres. The addition of Nashville as a new market and the partnership with the Ryan Seacrest Foundation highlight the event's growing reach. As with many major tours, resale demand remains high, and fans are advised to compare prices across platforms. For those planning to attend multiple events, the overlap between Rodrigo's Unraveled Tour dates and Jingle Ball stops in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., may require careful scheduling.
What This Means for Fans and the Industry
Rodrigo's busy schedule reflects a broader trend of artists extending tours into multiple years and capitalizing on holiday concert events. The Unraveled Tour runs through May 10, 2027, with international dates expected to be announced. Meanwhile, Jingle Ball's nine-city run and ABC special ensure the holiday season remains a key revenue driver for live entertainment.
For fans, the immediate takeaway is clear: tickets for both the Unraveled Tour and Jingle Ball are in high demand. With general on-sale for Jingle Ball beginning October 2, and many Unraveled Tour dates already sold out, securing seats will require quick action. As Rodrigo continues her ascent, her presence across both tours cements her status as one of the most in-demand live performers of the moment.
