The move is a shift from Styles’ last major tour, Love On Tour, which included 173 shows over nearly two years. According to the Daily Mail, the singer is adopting a residency-style format that will keep him in fewer locations for longer stretches.

Residency-style schedule

The tour is scheduled to run from May through December, with performances planned in Amsterdam, London, São Paulo, Mexico City, New York, Melbourne and Sydney.

New York will host the largest portion of the run, with 30 shows set at Madison Square Garden. In London, Styles will play six nights at Wembley Stadium, where Shania Twain is expected to support several dates, the Daily Mail reported.

Under the residency model, Styles and his team are expected to stay in rented accommodation rather than move between hotels nightly, reducing the pace of travel.

Personal considerations

According to the Daily Mail, the decision to reduce the tour’s scale is partly influenced by Styles’ personal life. The singer has been linked to actress Zoe Kravitz since August, and the two were seen together in Rome late last year.

Styles is currently based in the city while renovation work continues on his London home.

During his previous tour, Styles ended his relationship with filmmaker Olivia Wilde. The demands of touring were cited at the time as a factor in the split, the report said.
