With its inception following her acclaimed performance at Coachella, the tour is poised to kick off in Detroit, weaving through cities such as Orlando, San Francisco, and Portland.

What sets the Magic Hour Tour apart is Aiko’s choice to share the stage with a lineup of talented female artists, creating a platform for collaboration and celebration of female voices in the industry. Coi Leray, Tink, Umi, and Kiana Ledé are set to join Aiko as “co-stars,” each bringing their unique sound and energy to the tour.
