Dua Lipa is on the Asia leg of her “Radical Optimism” tour, and the singer-songwriter is teasing fresh elements for her devoted fanbase across the continent.
The Asia tour kicked off in Singapore and continued across Philippines, Japan, Taiwan and Malaysia, with India and South Korea to come.
After incorporating Jane Fonda-inspired workout routines into her Singapore performances, Lipa remains coy about what else she has planned for the remainder of the tour. “You never know what I might have up my sleeve, but I think you’re going to like it,” Lipa told Variety.
The “Dance The Night” hitmaker has always maintained a special connection with Asia, particularly India, where she’s scheduled to perform in Mumbai on Nov. 30. Her previous visits to the region have left lasting impressions, both personally and professionally.
“I always leave my trips feeling so rejuvenated and full of inspiration,” she said. “One of the best parts about touring the world is getting to be a tourist in so many new places, and I always find the best things to do when I’m in Asia and definitely in India. Last time I visited, I met so many warm and kind people.”
The upcoming Mumbai concert marks Lipa’s return to the city after a significant hiatus. In 2019, she performed at the OnePlus Music Festival.
“It’s been so long since my last performance in Mumbai,” Lipa said. “I’m trying not to set too many expectations going in, but I think I’m most looking forward to just being on stage and reconnecting with my fans that I haven’t seen in so long.”
Also performing at the Mumbai concert are Jonita and Talwinder.
Next up for Lipa are two concerts in Seoul, on Dec. 4 and 5.

On Tuesday (Nov. 19), the pop star announced the release date for her first-ever live album, Dua Lipa Live From The Royal Albert Hall. Recorded during her Oct. 17 performance at the iconic venue and releasing on Friday, Dec. 6, the new LP features Lipa singing through the entirety of her latest album, Radical Optimism, with a number of her biggest hits sprinkled in for good measure.
In a statement, Lipa shared that her performance at the legendary hall was “unlike anything I’ve ever done,” and that she wanted to have a permanent record of the show. “For the longest time, I’ve had this idea to reimagine my music with an orchestra, and when I was making Radical Optimism, I was constantly thinking about the live element and how these songs would transform on stage, so when The Royal Albert Hall show came up, it presented itself as the perfect opportunity to not only reconstruct these songs, but also celebrate them in such a beautiful and intimate way,” she said. “The experience was entirely thrilling and equally rewarding.”
The live album will be released just days before Lipa’s primetime concert special filmed at The Royal Albert Hall — An Evening With Dua Lipa will air on CBS and Paramount+ on Sunday, Dec. 15.
