Following the release of his new single Lemonade, Louis Tomlinson announces a huge 2026 world arena tour, How Did We Get Here, and it's coming to Birmingham.

Born and raised in Doncaster, England, Louis Tomlinson auditioned for British singing competition The X Factor as a solo artist in 2010, where he and four rejected solo contestants were placed into a group which became the British-Irish band One Direction, one of the best-selling boy bands of all time.

Louis has also just announced that his third album How Did I Get Here? will be released on 23 January.

For his third album Louis has pushed himself as a lyricist, songwriter, and performer, holding nothing back on these tracks. Though he certainly doesn’t have to prove himself, it’s clear that he still writes music, plays shows, and sings as if everything is on the line. In the studio, restless creativity and a hunger for artistic exploration drive his process. Live, he leaves everything on the stage as sold-out crowds meet him head-on with the same amount of enthusiasm and energy. As a writer, he’s diving deeper into who he is than ever before. 

Louis Tomlinson plays Utilita Arena Birmingham on Saturday 25 April 2026. Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday 10 October here.
