Hilary Duff returns to continental Europe in May 2027 with The Lucky Me Tour, her first tour of the mainland in twenty-one years. The European leg opens at the Movistar Arena in Madrid on Friday 7 May 2027 and closes at the Avicii Arena in Stockholm on Saturday 22 May, with nine arena dates in sixteen days and Rebecca Black as special guest.
The route runs from Spain to Italy, then through Berlin, Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam and Cologne before heading north to Copenhagen and Stockholm. It follows the tour's 2026 visit to Ireland and Britain, which included the 3Arena in Dublin on 6 September 2026 and two nights at The O2 in London.
This page gathers the confirmed 2027 dates and venues, how the sale worked, and Hilary Duff's European concert history as recorded in the setlist.fm archive, from the Still Most Wanted Tour of spring 2006 to the comeback built around her 2026 album Luck... or Something.
Hilary Duff announced The Lucky Me Tour on 12 February 2026, a week before Luck... or Something came out on 20 February. It was her sixth studio album and her first in more than a decade, released on Atlantic Records. The tour opened in West Palm Beach on 21 June 2026 and, after its North American summer, reached Dublin, Cardiff, London, Manchester and Glasgow in September 2026.
The continental leg was added later. It starts in Madrid on Friday 7 May 2027 and moves to Milan on Monday 10 May and Berlin's Velodrom on Wednesday 12 May. Paris follows at the Zénith Paris on Friday 14 May, then three nights in a row in the Low Countries and the Rhineland: Forest National in Brussels on Sunday 16 May, the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam on Monday 17 May and the Lanxess Arena in Cologne on Tuesday 18 May.
The last two shows are in Scandinavia: the Royal Arena in Copenhagen on Thursday 20 May and the Avicii Arena in Stockholm on Saturday 22 May 2027. Rebecca Black is the announced special guest for all nine European dates.
After Europe the tour continues in Latin America in August 2027 and returns to North America in the autumn, where the support changes to Dashboard Confessional and then Tegan and Sara. The final date listed for the whole tour is 20 November 2027. As of 6 October 2026 no further European cities had been added; Spain, Italy and France each have one date, Germany has two.
Madrid's Palacio de Deportes on Avenida Felipe II, called the Movistar Arena since January 2025, was rebuilt after a fire in 2001 and reopened in 2005. It holds up to about 17,000 for concerts and is home to Real Madrid's basketball team.
The Velodrom in Prenzlauer Berg opened in 1997 as a cycling track designed by Dominique Perrault and holds up to 12,000 for concerts. It was Berlin's largest concert venue until the arena now called the Uber Arena opened in 2008.
The Zénith Paris in the Parc de la Villette, 19th arrondissement, opened in 1984 and holds about 6,300. Planned as a temporary hall, it was so successful that it gave its name to a network of Zénith venues across France.
Forest National, in the Brussels municipality of Forest, opened in 1970 and seats about 8,400. It is known for its circular interior and has been one of Belgium's main concert halls for more than fifty years.
The Ziggo Dome opened in 2012 in Amsterdam's south-east, next to the Johan Cruijff ArenA, and holds 17,000. In 2017 it ranked among the five busiest concert venues in the world.
The Lanxess Arena in Deutz, on the right bank of the Rhine, opened in 1998 as the Kölnarena and holds up to 20,000 for concerts. In 2019 it sold more tickets than any other arena in the world.
The Royal Arena in Ørestad South opened in 2017 and holds about 17,000 for concerts. It also stages sport and esports events, including The International 2024.
The Avicii Arena in Johanneshov, known as the Globen until 2009 and the Ericsson Globe until 2021, opened in 1989 and holds about 16,000 for concerts. It is the second largest spherical building in the world.

Hilary Duff's European story started on television. The setlist.fm archive records her miming or singing one or two songs on the French music show Hit Machine in Paris in October 2003 and April 2004, on Dutch television in Hilversum and at the Ahoy in Rotterdam, and on Italian programmes in Milan in 2005. In February 2006 she appeared at the Teatro Ariston in Sanremo, home of the Italian song festival, and on 3 March 2006 she performed a single song at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy, the building now called the Accor Arena.
Her only full European tour so far came that spring. The Still Most Wanted Tour, which followed the 2005 compilation Most Wanted, played seven continental shows in eleven days. It opened at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam on 30 April 2006, moved to Le Grand Rex in Paris on 2 May, then to Spain: the Pavelló Olímpic de Badalona outside Barcelona on 5 May, La Cubierta in Leganés, south of Madrid, on 6 May and the Velódromo Luis Puig in Valencia on 7 May.
The run ended with two nights at the Alcatraz in Milan on 9 and 10 May 2006. These were mid-sized rooms: Le Grand Rex is a historic Paris cinema and music hall, the Alcatraz a club in the north of Milan and the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam is now called AFAS Live.
The Paris show at Le Grand Rex was the longest of the leg, with 22 songs, including "Anywhere but Here", "Love Just Is", "The Math", "Sweet Sixteen" and a closing cover of "My Generation". The Spanish and Italian nights ran to 16 or 17 songs, opening with "Wake Up" and ending with "So Yesterday" and "Rock This World".
After 2006 the archive goes quiet. There were promotional appearances on Italian television in Milan in March 2007, around the release of Dignity, but the Dignity Tour of 2007 and 2008 did not include continental shows in the archive, and a planned tour for Breathe In. Breathe Out. was called off in February 2016.
The comeback on stage began in January 2026 with the Small Rooms, Big Nerves Tour, a run of small theatres in London, Brooklyn, Toronto, Los Angeles and Las Vegas that sold out on the day of sale. In September 2026 The Lucky Me Tour played the 3Arena in Dublin on 6 September, her first Irish date of the comeback. The May 2027 shows will be her first continental concerts since the Alcatraz in Milan in May 2006.
The table below lists 7 documented European concerts by Hilary Duff between 2006 and 2006, with the most shows in Milan (2), Valencia (1), Leganés (1), Badalona (1), Paris (1), Amsterdam (1). It is not exhaustive: it only includes documented shows.

Across the 7 most recent documented European concerts with a full song list (30 April 2006 to 10 May 2006), these are the songs that came up most often. Titles only — set lists change from night to night.
Hilary Duff's European record contains no open-air festival appearances. The closest she came to a festival stage is the Teatro Ariston in Sanremo, home of the Italian song festival, where the archive lists a one-song appearance on 28 February 2006.
In 2027 all nine continental dates are her own arena shows, with Rebecca Black opening. No European festival booking had been announced as of 6 October 2026.
Hilary Erhard Duff was born in Houston on 28 September 1987 and grew up between Houston and San Antonio. She moved to California with her mother and her sister Haylie in 1993, worked in commercials and small screen roles, and won the title role of the Disney Channel series Lizzie McGuire, which premiered on 12 January 2001. The Lizzie McGuire Movie followed in 2003.
Her music career began with the Christmas album Santa Claus Lane in 2002. Metamorphosis (2003) topped the Billboard 200 and produced "So Yesterday" and "Come Clean". The self-titled Hilary Duff (2004), the compilation Most Wanted (2005), which went to number one in the United States with "Wake Up", and Dignity (2007), a dance and electropop record influenced by Europop, kept her among the biggest teen pop acts of the decade. She has sold an estimated 15 million records.
Acting then took over. She starred as Kelsey Peters in Younger (2015 to 2021) and produced and starred in How I Met Your Father (2022 to 2023). Music returned only briefly with Breathe In. Breathe Out. in 2015, on RCA, which debuted at number five in the United States, but she did not tour it.
In 2025 she signed with Atlantic Records. The singles "Mature" (6 November 2025) and "Roommates" (15 January 2026) led to Luck... or Something on 20 February 2026, which became her first number-one album in Australia. Re-recorded versions of earlier hits, subtitled "(mine)", were collected on the Record Store Day LP Mine in April 2026, and Time named her one of the 100 most influential people of 2026.
| Album | Year | Chart peak |
|---|---|---|
| Santa Claus Lane | 2002 | — |
| Metamorphosis | 2003 | UK 69 |
| Hilary Duff | 2004 | — |
| Dignity | 2007 | UK 25 |
| Breathe In. Breathe Out. | 2015 | UK 91 |
| Luck... or Something | 2026 | UK 5 |
The calendar of the 2027 leg echoes the last one almost to the day. In 2006 she played Valencia on 7 May and Milan on 9 and 10 May; in 2027 she opens in Madrid on 7 May and plays Milan on 10 May. The difference is the scale: a club and a velodrome then, arenas now.
For fans who grew up with Lizzie McGuire in Spain, Italy, France or the Netherlands, it is the first chance in two decades to see her on the mainland. Several cities, Berlin, Brussels, Cologne, Copenhagen and Stockholm among them, have no earlier Hilary Duff concert in the archive at all.
Spain gets the opening night. The Movistar Arena, the rebuilt Palacio de Deportes on Avenida Felipe II, holds up to about 17,000 for concerts, far larger than La Cubierta in Leganés, where she played on 6 May 2006.
Paris is a Friday night at the Zénith Paris in the Parc de la Villette on 14 May 2027. Her previous Paris concert was Le Grand Rex on 2 May 2006; her only other stage in the city was a one-song set at Bercy in March 2006. Milan comes three days after Madrid, on Monday 10 May.
The middle of the leg is the busiest stretch: Forest National in Brussels on Sunday 16 May, the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam on Monday 17 May and the Lanxess Arena in Cologne on Tuesday 18 May. That is three shows in three countries on consecutive nights.
Amsterdam is the only city on the 2027 leg that also had a full concert on the 2006 tour, when she opened the Still Most Wanted run at the Heineken Music Hall. The Ziggo Dome, opened in 2012, stands in the same south-east district of the city. Berlin, two days before Paris, uses the Velodrom in Prenzlauer Berg rather than one of the city's newer arenas.
The tour ends in the north. Copenhagen's Royal Arena on Thursday 20 May and Stockholm's Avicii Arena, the former Globen, on Saturday 22 May are her first concerts in Denmark and Sweden in the archive.
After Stockholm the tour takes a break of more than two months and resumes with the Latin American dates in August 2027, so 22 May is the last chance to see it in Europe in 2027.
The Lucky Me Tour show mixes the early hits with the new album. At the opening concert in West Palm Beach on 21 June 2026 she played 21 songs, starting with "Wake Up" and closing with "What Dreams Are Made Of" from The Lizzie McGuire Movie, with "So Yesterday", "Come Clean" and "Fly" among the older songs. The European set list for 2027 has not been published, so changes from night to night are possible.
Her 2006 European concerts give a sense of how far the catalogue has grown. In Amsterdam she played 18 songs: "Wake Up", "The Getaway", "Do You Want Me?", "Underneath This Smile", "Come Clean", "Someone's Watching Over Me", "Shine", "Mr. James Dean", "Hide Away", "Beat of My Heart", "Cry", "I Am", "Party Up", "Fly", "Break My Heart", "Little Voice", "So Yesterday" and "Rock This World". Nothing from Dignity, Breathe In. Breathe Out. or Luck... or Something existed yet.
Rebecca Black opens the European shows. Arena concerts of this size usually start in the early evening, with the support act first; check the timings published by each venue a few days before the date.
European tickets went through two stages. An artist presale opened on Tuesday 29 September 2026 at 10am local time, and the general sale followed on Friday 2 October 2026 at 10am local time through the official ticketing outlets of each country. Tickets have therefore been on general sale since 2 October.
The safest places to buy are the official seller named on each venue's own website, which differs from country to country, and the artist's fan sign-up channels. Several shows fall on weekdays, and three run on consecutive nights, so double-check the city and date before paying.
There is no public Hilary Duff presale code to buy or share now that the presale has closed. Codes or "guaranteed" tickets sold on social media are not genuine, and resale listings can be far above face value; where a show sells out, use the official resale or ticket exchange offered in that country.
