Emily Ann Roberts dropped some very exciting news today that comes after a whirlwind of a year in her career. The breakout singer/songwriter has announced that she will be hitting the road in 2027, this time on her first-ever headline tour.
Throughout 2026, Roberts has balanced opening for country stars like Cody Johnson and Thomas Rhett, delivered several sold-out headlining shows across the country and made appearances at major music festivals. Along the way, she landed an ACM nomination, joined the Opry NextStage class of 2026 and most recently scored her first ever CMA Awards nomination for New Artist of the Year.
Now, she is eager to take center stage and perform for fans who come out specifically to see her headline her own shows.
“After having the incredible opportunity to open for my heroes in this industry, it’s finally time for me to step out on my own as the headliner,” shared Roberts. “2026 has been full of so many milestones for me. From my first ever sold-out shows, to being ACM and CMA nominated, my fans have made it clear they’re ready to see Emily Ann headline! We’re thrilled to bring my music to 23 cities in the spring of 2027.”
Named after the Tennessee native’s just-released EP, THE THREAD TOUR will launch on February 4 in Chattanooga, TN and continue with major stops throughout May, including Billy Bob’s Texas, Charleston Music Hall, Boston’s Royale, a hometown show at Knoxville’s Tennessee Theatre and her headline debut at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium.
Roberts will be joined by special guests Colton Dawson, Mae Estes, Cole Goodwin, and Kenny Whitmire on select dates.
Pre-sale tickets for The Thread Tour are available beginning Thursday, Oct. 22 with general on-sale beginning Friday, Oct. 23, both at 10:00 a.m. local time. VIP packages are available and include a meet-and-greet with the rising star, VIP tour gift, early VIP entry and merch access, and more.
Fans can visit EmilyAnnRoberts.com for pre-sale registration and additional VIP information.
Before hitting the road on her own, Roberts still has a few more opening dates to close out the year. She has plans to join Cody Johnson for a European run later this month, with stops in London, Dublin, Glasgow and additional cities across the U.K.
It was also recently announced that she will be heading back to C2C Festival in 2027, taking the main stage in London, Manchester, Glasgow, Berlin, and Rotterdam.
