Charli xcx has announced her return to Dublin as part of the UK and European leg of her Music, Fashion, Film Tour. She’ll head to the 3Arena on Saturday, February 13, and tickets go on sale next Friday, September 18.
Music, Fashion, Film dropped earlier this year, marking Charli’s eighth studio album and was considered a departure from the artist’s usual musical stylings. This deviation proved successful, earning her a second UK number one album of 2026. It was also a major commercial hit, landing at number three on the Billboard 200 in the US.
Standout tracks on the album include ‘Rock Music’, ‘SS26’, ‘Wink Wink’ and ‘Card Declined’.
Alongside the commercial success, the project also received rave reviews from critics. The Guardian proclaimed it “another gorgeously astute and disarmingly deep album about the instability of identity” and NME hailed it as “a snapshot of stardom from a true modern artist.” It has also been awarded Best New Music by Pitchfork.
The name Music, Fashion, Film is highlighted by the album’s cover, which features three iconic figures in each field: musician John Cale, designer Marc Jacobs, and director Martin Scorsese.

The title also highlights Charli’s ever-expanding career and the diverse creative work she has pursued. Her experimental and daring approach to music has led her into different artistic outlets, including iconic looks within the world of fashion.
The artist has additionally made a strong footing in the worlds of film and television. Earlier this year saw the release of her mockumentary feature, The Moment, in which Charli portrayed a heightened and comedic version of herself. She also made a guest appearance in the Amazon series Overcompensating, portraying a similarly comedic version of herself.
She has collaborated with a number of auteur directors, including Takashi Miike, Cathy Yan and Gregg Araki, starring in the latter’s recent film I Want Your Sex, alongside Cooper Hoffman and Olivia Wilde.
Fans who pre-ordered the Music, Fashion, Film album will receive first access to pre-sale tickets, while others will have the ability to sign up for pre-sale here until 5pm on Tuesday, September 15.
September 11 marks the start of the US leg of the tour, with a concert in Philadelphia before Charli moves on to perform at arenas across North America throughout September and October.
Tickets for Charli xcx’s Dublin show are priced from €98.75 to €133.75 and will go on sale on September 18 at 9am.
