The tour will be in support of Smith’s upcoming fourth studio album, Gloria which is due for release on 27 January.
It features singles “Love Me More” and recent hit “Unholy”, a collaboration with fellow popstar, Kim Petras.
The track reached number one in the UK becoming Smith’s eighth chart topper and Petras’ first number one, as well as number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
They recently returned to the live stage for two sold-out shows at the Royal Albert Hall in London, playing their biggest hits alongside new material.

Smith came out as non-binary and genderqueer in March 2019, and around six months later announced that they were changing their pronouns to they/them.
The Grammy Award-winner publicly came out as non-binary and genderqueer in an interview with Jameela Jamil’s Instagram Live show I Weigh Interviews.
“I’ve always had a little bit of a war going within my body and my mind,” Smith told She-Hulk star.
They added: “When I saw the words ‘non-binary’ and ‘genderqueer’ and I read into it and I heard this people speaking, I was like, ‘F**k, that’s me.'”
“I’m not male or female, I think I flow somewhere in between. It’s all on the spectrum,” they said.
Since then they’ve been part of the change to the BRIT Awards, which saw the music awards scrap its “best male” and “best female” categories in favour of gender-neutral awards.
