It might be chilly in Chicago, but “Brat” spring is coming.
Charli XCX — who made waves with her 2024 album “Brat” — announced four U.S. tour stops on her Brat 2025 Arena Tour, including a show at Allstate Arena in Rosemont on April 28.
Fans hoping to snag tickets can sign up for the presale, which begins at 10 a.m. Tuesday.
The singer was last in Chicago on Sept. 30 for the “SWEAT” tour at the United Center, which she co-headlined with pop star Troye Sivan.
Fans of Charli XCX began speculating about the tour after lime green signs went up in cities across the county — including one that said “chicago” at the Belmont “L” station Thursday.

“Brat” the album turned summer 2024 into “brat summer” and made its way into the vernacular of Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign, was released in June.
Since then, Charli XCX has remixed and reimagined the album.
She dropped “Brat and it’s completely different but also still brat” on Oct. 11, in which she collaborated with artists including Billie Eilish, Ariana Grande and Bon Iver to create new versions of all the “Brat” songs.
“i’ve always had a bit of an issue with songs coming out and being cemented as one thing for eternity…. i think songs are endless and have the possibility to be continuously broken down, reworked, changed, morphed, mutilated into something completely unrecognizable,” the singer wrote on X of the nontraditional release.
The other stops announced include Austin, Minneapolis and Brooklyn.
