His North American journey begins on July 19 at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, with stops planned in cities such as Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, Chicago, Nashville, Phoenix, and Los Angeles.

The first US run wraps up on September 5 at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, followed by a series of South American shows in October. The tour will then return to the United States for its final leg, concluding on November 20 at the Kaseya Center in Miami.

Tickets will first be available through the Zayn VIP KEY pre-sale on Tuesday, February 10, at 12 p.m. local time, according to Billboard.

Speaking about the project, Zayn Malik told Billboard, “It’s that time again, I have been lucky enough to make a fifth studio album…‘Konnakol’ in its definition is the act of creating percussive sounds with one’s voice, but what it means to me lies somewhere much deeper.”

Since leaving One Direction, Zayn Malik has built an impressive solo career. His debut album, Mind of Mine (2016), debuted at number one in both the United States and the United Kingdom.

He followed it with Icarus Falls in 2018, Nobody Is Listening in 2021, and his fourth album, Room Under The Stairs, in 2024.
