Bella Poarch Announces First Headlining Tour Following Debut Album Picnic at the Cemetery: ‘I’ve Dreamed of Singing These Songs Together in the Same Room’

Bella Poarch is officially taking her dark-pop universe from the studio to the stage!

Fresh off the release of her highly anticipated debut album, Picnic at the Cemetery, the Filipina-American pop powerhouse has officially announced her first-ever headlining tour. Spanning 27 dates across North America, the UK, and Europe, the Picnic at the Cemetery Tour kicks off on January 30, 2027 in Atlanta before hitting iconic venues like New York’s Bowery Ballroom, London’s 26 Leake Street, and wrapping up in Warsaw, Poland.

“This album is so personal to me, and getting to share it with you on my first headlining tour means everything,” Bella shared about taking the project on the road. “I’ve dreamed of singing these songs together in the same room. I can’t wait to see my Bigheads and make new memories with you.”

The artist presale kicks off Wednesday, October 7th at 9:00 AM local time, with general tickets opening Friday, October 9th at 9:00 AM local time on bellapoarch.ph/tour.

Celeb Secrets caught up with Bella on the red carpet at the 2026 MTV VMAs  last Sunday (September 27th), where she gave us all the tea on her album, her visual art, and what this personal era means to her.

Bella graced the carpet looking like a dark-fairytale dream, serving up major gothic-chic energy in a delicate cream-and-champagne corset dress with distressed lace, layered sheer draping, intricate garter details, and her signature dark pigtail braids.

“I would say it’s inspired by my album, Picnic At The Cemetery, that just came out last week,” Bella exclusively told Celeb Secrets on the red carpet when asked about her stunning look.

Released via Last Gang Records/MNRK Music Group, Picnic at the Cemetery is a 12-track cinematic coming-of-age masterpiece that transforms memories of childhood, her time in the U.S. Navy, past relationships, and healing into a dark fairytale universe. The album title takes inspiration from “All Saints Day” in the Philippines—a day centered around finding beauty, connection, and joy alongside memories of loved ones lost.

“It is about my life, and so it’s very personal to me, and it also just brings me back to my childhood memories growing up in the Philippines. I’m able to share a lot of vulnerable moments of me just growing up and being who I am.” the 29-year-old reveals to Celeb Secrets. 

To help tell those vulnerable stories, Bella created “The Bigheads”— hand-drawn original characters designed to personify each song and emotion across the tracklist (including singles “Ribcage,” “My Boy,” and “Stay Gone”).

“I’ve created characters for each song to personify each song,” Bella revealed as a behind-the-scenes secret. “So when you’re listening to the music, you’re also able to meet a character and a story. I love art. I love making tangible and intangible art… I love being creative.”

Seeing fan reactions to such personal storytelling has been the most rewarding part for the superstar, who has already amassed over 4.5 billion streams and 125 million followers.

“I’m just so happy that people are able to connect with it,” Bella shared with Celeb Secrets. “I’ve been reading all of my DMs, and it just feels so warming to see that I’m able to help other people with my music.”

After breaking through with her platinum-certified “Build a B*tch” — which made her the first artist from TikTok to reach the Billboard Hot 100 — Bella has continued carving out a lane that blends music, fashion, visual storytelling and pop culture.

Her debut EP, Dolls, introduced fans to that genre-blurring world in 2022. Since then, she’s collaborated with artists including Grimes, Kenia OS and Sub Urban, appeared in Disney’s TRON: Ares, and recorded renditions of “Zombie” and “Don’t Fear the Reaper” for Netflix’s Wednesday.

She’s also become a fashion and editorial fixture, from covering Vogue Philippines to appearing in PAPER‘s Music Issue and TMRW‘s October issue, while making appearances at Billboard Women in Music and front-row stops at Gucci during Milan Fashion Week.
