Will the pop princess make a Short n' Sweet stop in the UK?


After performing six times in the UK in 2024, Sabrina Carpenter has certainly left us wanting more. On 20 June, the ‘Espresso’ singer announced her Short n’ Sweet tour, kicking off in North America to promote her new album, set for release on 23 August 2024. But will she tour the UK? Here’s the lowdown.

When Is The Short n’ Sweet Tour?

Following her busy year opening for Taylor Swift at The Eras Tour, Sabrina Carpenter is finally embarking on a tour of her own, kicking off on 23 September 2024 and running until November.

Support acts include American singer-songwriter Amaarae, as well as Brits Griff and Declan McKenna.

Will Sabrina Carpenter Tour The UK?

No news just yet on whether Carpenter will tour the UK, but our fingers are firmly crossed. Before she embarks on her US tour, the pop singer will perform at San Francisco’s Outside Lands Festival but sadly, unlike last year, Carpenter is otherwise off the festival circuit – other than an appearance at Capital’s Summertime Ball at the start of June.

Who Is Sabrina Carpenter?

From teen actress to pop princess, Sabrina Carpenter is an American singer who kicked off her rise to stardom as a Disney actor. She first gained recognition on Girl Meets World, eventually signing to Disney-owned Hollywood Records in 2013, where she released her debut single, ‘Can’t Blame a Girl for Trying’. Here, she released the albums Eyes Wide Open (2015), Evolution (2016), Singular: Act I (2018) and Singular: Act II (2019) – but none really made an impact chart wise. In 2021, the singer moved to Island Records and released ‘Skin’, which would quickly become her first US Billboard Hot 100 hit. Her next album, Emails I Can’t Send (2022), debuted at number 23 on the Billboard 200.

Gradually gaining relevance, Carpenter opened for Taylor Swift on The Eras Tour in August 2023, captivating fans worldwide. Flash forward to 2024 and Carpenter’s sixth studio album, Short n’ Sweet (2024), is expected to be her highest-charting album to date after the global success of its first single, ‘Espresso’, quickly followed by ‘Please Please Please’.

Does Sabrina Carpenter Have A Partnership With Spotify?

How has ‘Espresso’ risen to such extreme fame? And why does it always appear on Spotify’s automatically generated playlists and queues. Although there is no hard evidence confirming a deal between Carpenter and the music streaming platform, Spotify recently announced a first-of-its-kind partnership with the pop-singer to give exclusive ticket access to the Short n’ Sweet Tour to her top fans. There will be a Spotify ‘top listeners’ pit for these fans at every US show, and fans will also be able to purchase tickets via an exclusive presale code provided by ‘Fans First Front Row’, a new ticketing offer available through Spotify.
