Fans who missed out on Olivia Dean’s sold-out North American dates are getting another chance. The Grammy-winning British singer-songwriter has announced a new batch of tickets for the U.S. leg of her The Art of Loving Live 2026 tour, with sales set to begin on Friday, June 26, at 10 a.m. local time.
The newly released tickets will be available through Dean’s official Laylo page and arrive as demand for her first major North American arena run continues to grow.
The North American leg of The Art of Loving Live launches on July 10 in San Francisco, with R&B singer Baby Rose joining as the opening act.
The announcement comes less than a year after tickets for the tour’s initial dates sold at a rapid pace. When The Art of Loving Live was first unveiled in August 2025, it represented Dean’s biggest tour to date and her first fully arena-based trek. Demand quickly exceeded expectations, leading to multiple expansions across Europe, Oceania, the United States, and Canada.
Additional dates were added throughout the rollout, including an extended residency at London’s O2 Arena and three extra nights at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Those additions further underscored Dean’s growing commercial power, particularly following the success of her second studio album, The Art of Loving.
The current tour began on April 23, 2026, in Glasgow, Scotland, and is scheduled to conclude on October 17 in Auckland, New Zealand. Across 54 shows, Dean is performing in arenas and major festival settings throughout Europe, North America, and Oceania. Support acts across the various legs include Alice Phoebe Lou, Kokoroko, Jalen Ngonda, Sasha Keable, and Baby Rose.
Live ticketing has become a particularly important issue for Dean. In November 2025, she publicly criticized Ticketmaster and other major ticketing platforms over resale practices that allowed tickets to appear at heavily inflated prices on secondary markets. Calling the situation “exploitative and unregulated,” Dean pushed for changes designed to keep tickets in the hands of fans rather than scalpers.
The controversy led to notable action from major ticketing companies. Ticketmaster and AXS later introduced resale price caps for Dean’s tour and issued refunds to some buyers who had paid above face value. At the time, Dean said she wanted to ensure that “real people” were the ones filling venues each night.
