Billie Eilish began her Hit Me Hard And Soft world tour in Quebec, Canada, on Sunday (29 September), where she performed new songs for the first time, played old favourites, and shared some surprises.
While the Australian tour isn’t until February and March 2025—the bad guy singer will play four arena shows in Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne—it’s likely that due to production commitments and a fresh album to showcase, Eilish’s current setlist will remain in play next year.
So, if you don’t want to see spoilers, click on another article now. We’re about to explore what stands out the most about the first show on the tour before laying out the full setlist.
Over 26 songs (some extended, others shortened), Eilish displays her artistry from across her three albums – WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?, Happier Than Ever, and Hit Me Hard And Soft – EPs Don’t Smile At Me and Guitar Songs, singles everything I wanted and What Was I Made For?, and collaborations.
As for the collaborations, fans can expect Eilish to take on lovely (featuring Khalid) and Guess, the track she features on with Charli XCX, which went to #1 in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.
You can check out the setlist below.
