More about the ongoing An Evening With PinkPantheress tourPinkPantheress’s Brooklyn shows are part of her residency-style North American fall tour, announced in June 2025 as reported by Billboard on June 16, 2025. The nine-date run includes stops across the United States and Canada, with stops in New York, Toronto, Chicago, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area, reportedly marking her most ambitious live schedule yet.

In an interview with Capital Buzz earlier this year, the artists also said that live shows are not their main creative focus, saying,"I don’t do music to perform, I think is the thing. No amount of rehearsal can make a difference when you’re in front of like 10,000, 50,000, 100,000 people."The singer also said that performance anxiety has been seen as a “hindrance” to her career sometimes, but she is always committed to improving. "I’m going to get better."PinkPantheress performs on day three of the 2025 Glastonbury music festival at Worthy Farm, Pilton, on June 27, 2025, in Glastonbury, England.
