Last night (June 5), Dua Lipa captivated the crowd at Berlin's Waldbühne, marking the beginning of her "Radical Optimism" tour. This series of headline shows serves as a prelude to her upcoming performances at major European festivals.
In Berlin, Dua Lipa delighted fans with a setlist that spanned her latest album, beloved hits, and her popular dance collaboration with Elton John. The night opened with "Training Season," setting an energetic tone, before transitioning into the crowd-pleaser "One Kiss," her hit with Calvin Harris. She continued with dynamic performances of "Illusion," "Break My Heart," and "Levitating."
After a brief intermission, Lipa returned to the stage to debut "These Walls" live, a track from her "Radical Optimism" album. The excitement continued as she performed a cover of "Cold Heart," a song she released with Elton John and Australian electronic trio PNAU in 2021.
To close the show, Dua Lipa treated the audience to a series of high-energy hits, including "Happy For You," "Physical," "Don’t Start Now," and "Houdini."
Following her Berlin show, the "Radical Optimism" tour will move to Croatia and France before Lipa embarks on a festival circuit across Europe. Notably, she will headline at Glastonbury Festival in the UK, Poland’s Open’er Festival, Belgium’s Rock Werchter, Spain’s Mad Cool Festival, and Portugal’s NOS Alive Festival.
In the US, fans can catch Dua Lipa at Austin City Limits in Texas on October 5 and 12. She will also have a special one-night performance at the Royal Albert Hall in London the following week.
With the 'Radical Optimism' tour underway, Dua Lipa continues to shine as a global pop sensation, delivering electrifying performances and unforgettable moments to her fans worldwide.
