“Love On Tour” is officially here. Harry Styles set off on his tour this week for his second solo album, Fine Line— something fans have been waiting for since 2019 when tickets went on sale. Originally set to have his first show in April of 2020, the tour was delayed due to COVID-19. Fast forward to Sep. 4, 2021, Harry finally kicked off his first concert with a bang in Las Vegas, Nevada. Appearing on stage at the MGM Garden Arena shirtless in a sequined hot pink fringe vest and equally eye-catching hot pink pants, the singer opened the show with his hit song “Golden.”
Of course, his Las Vegas show was only the first of many, as there are currently 40 dates scheduled across the United States, with the tour ending in a three-day stint at The Forum in Los Angeles, California. Fans attending any of the shows must present proof of being vaccinated against COVID-19 or show proof of a negative COVID-19 test, as well as wear a mask in order to attend the concert. Harry himself has even been seen donning a mask as he walks past the crowd to get on or off the stage.
At his second show on Sep. 7 in Denver, Colorado, he appeared in red pants and suspenders, with a blue striped shirt underneath. For the third show on Sep. 9 at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, Harry came on stage dressed in a pair of pastel yellow trousers and suspenders, paired with a sparkling silver shirt. However, while Styles is known for his often-bold fashion choices, he is not the only one dressing up for his shows. Fans of the singer have banded together across social media and made sure that they are all dressing properly for the occasion. Fans are paying homage to Harry’s passion for fashion, showing up in outfits dedicated to the album cover, specific songs, Styles himself, or even just the latest fashion trends. Many concert attendees are even matching their masks to their outfits to ensure they are as fashionable as they can be.
The setlist consists of many fan-favorite songs, including the classic hit from his One Direction days, “What Makes You Beautiful.” After opening the show with “Golden,” Harry transitioned to a song from his debut album Harry Styles, called “Carolina.” Throughout the show, there is a good mix of songs from both of his albums, but Styles closes the concert with his hit song “Watermelon Sugar” (which he won Best Solo Pop Performance for at the Grammy Awards) and the song “Kiwi” from his first album.
Overall, Harry Styles’ “Love On Tour” is shaping up to be an experience worth waiting for. After being delayed for over a year, it certainly seems to be living up to fans’ expectations. With a setlist full of hit songs both old and new, and arguably the most fashion-conscious concert audience ever, “Love On Tour” is sure to be a great time for anyone attending.
