Head Above Water Tour
The Head Above Water Tour was the sixth concert tour by Canadian singer Avril Lavigne. Launched in support of her sixth studio album, Head Above Water (2019), the tour consisted of 15 shows in North America and was her first concert tour in five years, after The Avril Lavigne Tour.[1] Initially scheduled to end mid-2020 with a total of 43 concerts, concerts in Asia and European legs were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These shows were rescheduled for early 2021, as the Avril Lavigne World Tour 2021.

Background
The tour was announced by Lavigne on her social media on June 24, 2019.[2] She also announced that a portion of the proceeds from every ticket sold on the tour will be donated to The Avril Lavigne Foundation to raise awareness and fund treatment for those in need.[3] Due to the high demand, extra concerts were added in London,[4][5] Milan and Tokyo. The concert in Vienna was moved to Wiener Stadthalle, due to high demand in the country. The shows in Italy and Switzerland also had venues upgraded due to the demand. Tickets for Berlin and Cologne shows were sold out three months in advance.
