After a three-year hiatus, Harry Styles is back, reigniting his love for music and teasing a new era with the upcoming album, "Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally". The global pop sensation's return has been marked by the release of his new single "Aperture" on January 22, 2026, and the announcement of the "Together, Together" world tour.
Styles' last tour, the "Love On Tour," concluded in 2023 after a nearly two-year run supporting "Fine Line" and "Harry's House". The tour grossed $617 million across 169 shows, ranking it among the highest-grossing tours of all time. After years of performing, Styles spent much of the last two years "on the other side of the audience experience". He explained that he enjoyed being a "true audience member" and "experiencing live music with strangers," which ultimately inspired him to create new music.
"Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally," Styles' fourth studio album, is set to release on March 6, 2026. The album, executive produced by Kid Harpoon, will feature 12 tracks. Styles' new single, "Aperture," offers a glimpse into the album's sonic direction, blending techno-pop with a booming bass and glittery synths. The lyrics, repeating "We belong together," create an infectious and euphoric experience, blending Styles' gentle vocals with club-like beats.
The "Together, Together" tour will kick off on May 16, 2026, in Amsterdam, with 50 dates planned across seven cities. Styles will perform six nights at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam and six nights at London's Wembley Stadium. He will also have residencies in São Paulo, Mexico City, Melbourne and Sydney. The tour's centerpiece will be a 30-show residency at Madison Square Garden in New York City, breaking his previous record of 15 nights at the venue in 2022. Jamie xx will be the opening act for all New York residency shows. Other opening acts throughout the tour include Robyn, Shania Twain, Jorja Smith, and Fousheé.
Styles' focus on living life and expanding his social circle has influenced the new music's creative direction. He credits going out dancing and widening his friend circle as important to his process.
While the tour announcement has been met with excitement, some fans have expressed disappointment over the limited number of cities and the absence of Canadian dates. The concentration of shows in New York City has also raised concerns about accessibility for fans in other regions. Despite these concerns, the anticipation for Styles' new album and tour remains high.
When asked about his future in music, Styles stated it was "hard to tell" if he would still be making music in 20 or 30 years, but stated that he loves music too much to imagine not making it. He is excited to be starting again and feels loved and supported by his fans.
