No need to throw out an SOS, SZA fans — she may be coming to a venue near you on the second leg of her 2023 ‘SOS’ Tour.
From June 17 to Oct. 29, the New Jersey native will perform at 22 venues all over the UK and North America supporting her number one album “SOS” which came out in late 2022.
That includes a stop at Newark’s Prudential Center on Oct. 1 and back-to-back gigs at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Oct. 6 and Oct. 7.
Should you attend, expect a visually and sonically spectacular experience.
“She performed…on a wildly elaborate seaside-themed stage that included a giant fake fishing boat, a dinghy that soared above the crowd and a lighthouse,” Variety shared in a rousing review. They continued, “(Her) crowd-pleasing, nearly two-hour-long set…had the audience out of their seats and singing along for virtually the entire show.”
Plus, at select shows she brought out surprise stars Phoebe Bridgers, Lizzo and Cardi B to perform with her.
Want to hear “Kill Bill,” “Good Days,” “All The Stars,” “Kiss Me More” and all of SZA’s other mega hits?
And who knows? Maybe even see Bridgers, Cardi or another big-name special guest?
Well, here’s everything you need to know about the tour and more.
