Toronto, the time has finally come for us to head back to the badlands, and Halsey is taking us all the way there as we reminisce on 10 years of Halsey’s debut album and all of the live performances that came after.
The Back To The Badlands Tour will see Halsey take to the stage for three nights at HISTORY from Jan. 9-11, performing unforgettable hits from Badlands like “Colours,” “New Americana,” and “Castle.”
Halsey is no stranger to Toronto. Since storming onto the scene, she’s visited the city numerous times on sold out headlining tours and even surprise intimate shows.
The shows come just months after the singer made headlines for revealing to BBC Radio 1 host Zane Lowe that her record label won’t allow her to make another album at the moment after her recent album, The Great Impersonator, “didn’t perform the way they thought it was going to,” despite selling 100,000 copies in the first week.
The singer also revealed during her interview with Lowe that her issues with the label came as her 2025 tour, For My Last Trick, was her highest selling tour of her career.
Before we head back to the badlands, take a trip down memory lane with some of these iconic Halsey performances in the city.
Hopeless, Fountain, Kingdom Tour
Date: Oct. 4, 2017
Venue: Scotiabank Arena
The Hopeless, Fountain, Kingdom Tour saw Halsey take over Scotiabank Arena in support of her sophomore album, Hopeless, Fountain Kingdom. Playing hits like “Hopeless,” “Now or Never,” and of course “Bad At Love,” Halsey set the stage on fire leaving Torontonians wanting more. The best part? She didn’t do it alone, the tour saw a list of stacked openers including Canada’s own PartyNexDoor and Jessie Reyez.
Secret Sessions with iHeartRadio
Date: Oct.14, 2019
Venue: The Opera House
Almost exactly two years after her Hopeless, Fountain, Kingdom Tour stop, Halsey returned to Toronto, only this time for an exclusive secret sessions performance. The singer partnered with iHeartRadio Canada to give some lucky fans an exclusive and intimate show as part of iHearRadio’s secret sessions. Although only the luckiest few were in attendance, it wouldn’t be long until she came back for an even bigger performance.
Love and Power Tour
Date: June 5, 2022
Venue: Budweiser Stage
Who can forget this one! The Love and Power Tour would see Halsey headline Budweiser Stage for the very first time, inviting fans to celebrate her fourth studio album, If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power. The show drew in a massive crowd, as many came to support the singer who hadn’t been to Toronto since 2019, and had to cancel shows in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic. The wait was worth it, as fans also saw openers PinkPantheress and Beabadoobee also perform incredible sets.
For My Last Trick Tour
Date: June 10, 2025
Venue: Budweiser Stage
As Toronto gears up for three incredible Halsey performances, many are still not over her most recent show, which was less than one year ago! In June, Halsey returned to Budweiser Stage for her ForMy Last Trick: The Tour, in support of her fifth album, The Great Impersonator. Throughout the tour, Halsey was joined on stage by several incredible artists including Evanescence, Flowerovlove, Sir Chloe, and many more. It was an incredible night filled with several hits and tricks, and now fans will be able to experience all of the fun for three massive nights again!
