Niall Horan released his acclaimed second studio album “Heartbreak Weather” on March 13, 2020.Tour dates were lined up and the rising star had high hopes for the year.Unfortunately, the lockdown was put into place shortly after and the nationwide trek was scrapped.Now, three long years later, Horan has announced his long-awaited upcoming 2024 ‘The Show’ World Tour, his first since 2018. The 50-concert international trek is in support of Horan’s upcoming third studio album “The Show” which is set to hit shelves on June 9.Along the way, Horan is set to bring his hits — and maybe some of One Direction’s (!) — to New York City’s Madison Square Garden on June 14, Saratoga Springs’ Saratoga Performing Arts Center on June 21 and Buffalo’s Darien Lake Amphitheater on June 22.“I really want my show to be a place of pure joy and somewhere you can come to escape and let loose,” he shared on Twitter.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic The good news for Niall Horan fans in the U.S. is that he’ll be doing a summer tour of the States in support of his imminent album release. The slightly not-so-good news, for fans who might’ve hoped for more immediate gratification, is that this arena/amphitheater tour will be in summer 2024, kicking off almost a year after the new record comes out. European fans will get a slight head start on the tour, but those dates are waiting until next year, too, with the first night of the international jaunt set for Feb. 21, 2024 in Belfast, UK at the SSE Arena. The North American leg of the worldwide outing will begin May 29, 2024 at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida. Stops along the way include shows at Madison Square Garden next June 15, the Kia Forum in L.A. on July 27 and Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on June 3. The tour is scheduled to conclude July 231, 2024 at the Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre.
