Olivia Rodrigo has opened her Unraveled tour at PeoplesBank Arena in Hartford, Connecticut, beginning an 86-date itinerary built around her third album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love. The record arrived in June, and the Hartford opening starts a run scheduled to move through North America into February 2027 before continuing to Europe in March.
Only the beginning of the opening-night setlist is presently available: “Drop Dead” and “U + Me =” were listed as the live update was underway. That means it would be premature to treat a complete running order, song count, finale, encore structure, or any song omissions as confirmed. A setlist is the sequence of songs performed at a concert; it can be useful for fans planning later dates, but an opening-night list does not necessarily lock in the show for every stop of a long tour.
What the Unraveled itinerary includes
Hartford is scheduled to host two nights before Rodrigo travels across North America. The announced North American leg runs through February 2027 and culminates in extended 10-night engagements at Los Angeles’ Intuit Dome and New York City’s Barclays Center.
Those residencies are a notable part of the itinerary simply because they concentrate a large number of performances in two cities rather than treating each as a conventional single-night stop. For audiences, that can mean more opportunities within a market; for the tour itself, it makes Los Angeles and New York central endpoints of the North American portion rather than brief stops along the way.
Europe follows in March, with dates named for Amsterdam, Munich and Barcelona. The current plan then ends with two shows at London’s O2 Arena. No shows in Asia, Australia or South America have been established in the information available, so any suggestion that the tour will extend to those regions remains speculation rather than a confirmed expansion.
- Tour name: Unraveled
- Opening venue: PeoplesBank Arena, Hartford, Connecticut
- Tour length: 86 dates
- Album supported: You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love
- North American endpoint: February 2027, after 10-night runs in Los Angeles and New York City
- European cities named: Amsterdam, Munich, Barcelona and London
An opener schedule that changes over the run
The support lineup is scheduled to rotate rather than stay fixed for the full tour. Wolf Alice is set to open through the end of October. Devon Again is slated to take over for the remaining North American shows, with The Last Dinner Party joining Devon Again starting in January.
For the European leg, Grace Ives is slated to open through April 12, followed by Die Spitz for the rest of the trek. The changing bill matters for ticket holders because the opening act attached to one date may not be the artist performing at another. It also makes the tour feel segmented: the North American schedule is divided across multiple supporting configurations, while the European run has its own pair of openers.
Support acts are typically the performers who appear before the headliner. Their placement is not merely a playlist detail; it shapes the musical frame of the evening and can change as a tour moves between regions or calendar windows. Here, the announced transitions are tied to specific periods, including the end of October, January, and April 12.

How Unraveled fits Rodrigo’s touring history
Unraveled is Rodrigo’s third tour, following Sour in 2022 and Guts across 2024 and 2025. Her Guts run was her longest to date, totaling 102 shows across five continents. By comparison, the newly launched tour is announced at 86 dates, placing it below that earlier total on the present schedule.
That comparison needs one important qualifier: an announced route is not the same thing as a final completed total. The current information specifically says it is unknown whether dates will be added in Asia, Australia or South America. Until additional dates are actually confirmed, 86 is the meaningful number for Unraveled, while 102 remains the cited benchmark for the completed Guts itinerary.
For fans tracking the scale of the new run, the practical distinction is straightforward. There is a confirmed North American-to-European plan, there are named concluding engagements in Los Angeles, New York and London, and there is no confirmed route beyond those regions. Treating possible additions as part of the tour now would blur the line between a stated plan and an unanswered question.
Daisy Chain Fields preceded the arena run
Before the tour began, Rodrigo staged her inaugural Daisy Chain Fields music festival in August. She curated a women-only lineup that included Chappell Roan, Doechii and Garbage. Rodrigo closed the event and brought out Alanis Morissette, Sarah McLachlan and Stevie Nicks as guests.
The festival also had a defined charitable purpose. Its net proceeds were directed to charities that support and advocate for women and girls. The event raised $10 million, and Melinda Gates matched that amount, bringing the total to $20 million.
That festival date offers relevant context for the timing of Unraveled: Rodrigo had a major live event ahead of the tour launch, but it was a separately framed festival with a curated lineup and charitable proceeds, not a tour stop. Readers looking at the wider festival calendar may also be interested in Infinity Festival’s planned Los Angeles return, another event positioned at the intersection of entertainment and technology.
What is confirmed from opening night
The strongest takeaway from Hartford is that Unraveled is now underway and that Rodrigo’s next large-scale live chapter has a defined, multi-region structure. The first two songs identified in the developing opening-night list are “Drop Dead” and “U + Me =.” Beyond that, the incomplete nature of the update matters.
A live setlist can change during a show, and on a tour of this size it can change again between cities. Fans should therefore distinguish among three different kinds of information: songs verified from the first show, dates and support acts already scheduled, and prospective additions that have not been announced. At this stage, Hartford supplies the first category only in part, while the route and opening-act timetable provide the clearest view of what is planned next.
With a second Hartford performance, a North American run extending to February 2027, and a European stretch scheduled afterward, there will be ample opportunity for the show’s recurring structure to become clearer. For now, the tour’s launch establishes the headline facts: a new album cycle, an 86-date itinerary, rotating support, and an opening-night song list that is still incomplete.
