Any remaining tickets will be available during the general on-sale starting at noon on Friday, May 3, at billieeilish.com.
What to know about Billie Eilish resale tickets
The goal is to give fans, not scalpers, the best chance to buy tickets at face value. To make this possible, Eilish has chosen to use Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange. If fans purchase tickets for a show in the U.S. or Canada and can't attend, they'll have the option to resell them to other fans at the original price paid.
To help protect the Exchange, the tour has requested all tickets be mobile only and restricted from transfer. This applies to all shows except those in Colorado, Illinois and New York, where Face Value Exchange cannot be mandated. A valid bank account or debit card within the country of your event is required to sell on the Face Value Exchange. More information on how the Ticketmaster Exchange works is available at ticketmaster.com.
Concert review: A Billie Eilish concert feels like witnessing a new pop legend in the making. Here's why

The album will be available on all digital platforms and — in a continued effort to minimize waste and combat climate change — across all physical formats in limited variants on the same day, with the same track listing and using 100% recyclable materials.

What to know about Billie Eilish's tour sustainability efforts
Eilish will continue her long-standing partnership with environmental nonprofit Reverb on this tour, building on the success of previous efforts, which resulted in more than $1 million donated to environmental, greenhouse gas reduction, and climate justice projects, more than 150,000 fan actions and more. Sustainability efforts on this tour will include reducing greenhouse gas pollution, decreasing single-use plastic waste, supporting climate action and updating concession offerings to promote and encourage plant-based food options with Support+Feed.
In keeping with her commitment to making a difference in the environmental impact of her music and touring, a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales in North America will go to Reverb and its ongoing effort to help support organizations across the country addressing the impacts of food insecurity and the climate crisis.
The Billie Eilish Reverb Eco-Villages will be set up at two locations in the main concourse of each show, where fans can take part in the tour’s sustainability efforts, connect with nonprofits and take meaningful action for people and the planet.
What to know about Support+Feed
Support+Feed will be launching a 360 campaign throughout the tour, offering an expanded version of the Support+Feed Pledge inspiring fans to eat one plant-based meal a day for 30 days with digital elements and community activations. Fans can also participate in plant-based food drives in select cities to raise awareness and gather food to distribute to local communities.
Why Billie Eilish wants fans to take public transportation
Fans are encouraged to join the effort to make the “Hit Me Hard and Soft” tour more sustainable by taking public transportation, where possible, and carpooling to and from the shows to help reduce greenhouse gas pollution. Fans will receive information via email about public transportation options before the show.
Venue partners are also helping to lessen the environmental footprint of the tour. In addition to efforts to decrease waste through reducing or eliminating single-use plastics and diverting landfill waste with compost and recycling, venues will be offering plant-based food options at all shows.
What to know about RockNRefill bottles
Fans are encouraged to bring an empty reusable water bottle or donate for a custom RockNRefill Nalgene bottle to fill up at the free water refill stations located at each venue. The RockNRefill bottles and refill stations are located at the Eco-Villages in the main concourse at all shows.
What to wear to Billie Eilish's concert
Fans are also encouraged to fight fast fashion by opting for thrifted, upcycled or borrowed clothes instead of buying new clothing to wear to shows.
