The Head Above Water Tour was the sixth concert tour by Canadian singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne. Launched in support of her sixth studio album, Head Above Water (2019), the tour began on September 14, 2019 in Seattle and ended on October 11, 2019 in Bensalem.[1] Initially scheduled to end mid-2020 and early 2021 with a total of 43 concerts, all concerts in Asia and European legs were postponed and eventually cancelled due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Many international tour dates were moved to the Love Sux Tour in 2022.
Background
The tour was announced by Lavigne on her social media on June 24, 2019.[2] She also announced that a portion of the proceeds from every ticket sold on the tour will be donated to The Avril Lavigne Foundation to raise awareness and fund treatment for those in need.[3] Due to the high demand, extra concerts were added in London,[4][5] Milan[citation needed] and Tokyo[citation needed]. The concert in Vienna was moved to Wiener Stadthalle, due to high demand in the country.[citation needed] The shows in Italy and Switzerland also had venues upgraded due to the demand.[citation needed] Tickets for Berlin and Cologne shows were sold out three months in advance.[citation needed]
