Following the release of his critically-acclaimed album Pink Velvet Theatre and a 200k sold-out European tour, Swedish pop phenomenon and multi-billion-streamed artist Benjamin Ingrosso has announced his Pink Velvet Theatre North American Tour produced by Live Nation. The exclusive dates kick off February 7, 2025 in Chicago, IL, and will see Benjamin bring his captivating, larger-than-life live show to major North American cities for the first time, including Toronto, Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., and Los Angeles.

Tickets will be available starting with an artist presale beginning Wednesday, November 20. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on-sale beginning Friday, November 22 at 10 AM local time at LiveNation.com.

A 14-track album of pure pop perfection, Pink Velvet Theatre (Capitol Records) was executive produced by Vincent Pontare and Salem Al Fakir (A$AP Rocky, Lady Gaga, Madonna, Katy Perry, Sia) and marks a significant creative milestone for the artist, who spent the past two years crafting this album. The album title perfectly captures the mood of Benjamin Ingrosso’s surreal universe—a kaleidoscopic space filled with intense emotions and vivid imagery. Each track acts as a chapter in the protagonist’s journey, showcasing the artist’s distinctive blend of pop, influenced by the grandeur of old-school musicals and the timeless sounds of legends like the Bee Gees, Queen, and Elton John but also artists like Sade and Franz Ferdinand. The album’s soundscape combines nostalgia with innovation, inviting listeners to lose themselves in a world where love is thrilling and unpredictable.

Album standouts include “Look Who's Laughing Now,” which earned a coveted spot in a seven-minute medley performance during the Eurovision Song Contest semifinals in May, the Platinum-certified “Kite” and “Honey Boy,” his collaboration with German hitmaker Purple Disco Machine, the legendary Nile Rodgers, and Jamaican breakout star Shenseea.

With over 1 billion global streams, a collection of Gold and Platinum singles, three chart-topping albums, and record-breaking sold-out tours, Benjamin Ingrosso has solidified his reputation as one of Sweden's brightest stars who is ready to shine coast-to-coast on his Pink Velvet Theatre North American Tour.
