This new tour builds on an incredible few years of global performances for Mars, including his acclaimed Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM and an extensive and record-breaking international touring run throughout Australia, Asia, the Middle East, and South America. In early 2024, Mars became the first international artist of the 21st century to hold seven consecutive sold-out concerts at the Tokyo Dome. Notably, in the fall of 2024, he achieved the highest-grossing tour in Brazilian history, performing 14 sold-out stadium shows across Brazil, spanning five cities — Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Brasília, Belo Horizonte, and Curitiba. In August of 2024, Mars also opened Los Angeles' brand-new arena, Intuit Dome, with two sold-out performances, one of which featured a surprise on-stage duet with Lady Gaga, where they debuted the first live performance of "Die with a Smile."

The news coincides with the release of the project's first single, which will be released tomorrow, January 9.

The new project comes in the wake of Mars' continued chart success, with recent singles including the GRAMMY® award-winning "Die With A Smile" with Lady Gaga, which became the fastest song in Spotify history to reach 1 billion streams and topped the Billboard Global 200 Chart for a record-tying 18 weeks, as well as the pervasive "APT." with ROSÉ—the latter of which was just crowned the most globally streamed song of 2025 by Apple Music, and scored 19 weeks at number one on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. Chart and 12 weeks at number one on the Billboard Global 200 Chart. Beyond its massive global chart achievements, "APT." also won "Song of the Year" at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, and earned three nominations at this year's 68th Annual GRAMMY® Awards for "Song of the Year," "Record of the Year," and "Best Pop Duo/Group Performance."
