Melanie Martinez’s fan-favorite albums Cry Baby and K-12 are back from the dead. On Thursday, the singer announced that she will be embarking on an arena tour, titled the Trilogy Tour, that will celebrate her trio of LPs, including 2023’s Portals.
Martinez announced the tour dates on her Instagram, sharing a tour poster showing her Cry Baby character laying alongside the pink-skinned, four-eyed fairy creature she’s been performing during her tour to promote Portals.

“The cycle of life – from the beginning of crybaby’s story to the end 🕯️,” Martinez wrote on Instagram. “The trilogy tour!! Your favorite songs from all three albums in one show 🤍🥹… This tour is going to be so special.”
Martinez wrapped her Portals show run in the U.S. in July and is set to perform in Europe later this year, along with Asia and Australia in early 2024. During the Portals tour, the singer wears a costume of the pink fairy creature character and performs Portals in its entirety. During the tour, some fans questioned why the singer had not included some of her hits from past records, such as “Play Date,” “Pacify Her,” and “Dollhouse” while on the road.
For the Trilogy Tour, the singer will stop by arenas starting on May 10, including visits to Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, Denver’s Ball Arena, Orlando’s Amway Center, New York’s Madison Square Garden, and Detroit’s Little Caesars Arena.
Artists Men I Trust, Beach Bunny, and Sofia Isella will join the singer as openers for the tour.
“…first US shows ever. joining @littlebodybigheart on her new tour,” wrote Isela on Instagram. “So excited for these venues, including Madison fkn Square Garden which is like…”
“Such a dream come true,” added Beach Bunny.
Presale tickets for the Trilogy Tour go on sale on Nov. 14 at 9 am PT for fans on the singer’s email list before general ticket sales commence on Nov. 17 at 10 a.m. local time.
