New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Ellie Goulding has announced her Higher Than
Heaven tour - coming to the UK and EU this Autumn. The tour will go on general sale at

Last month, fans were given an exclusive preview of the new album when Ellie returned to the stage for two sold-out intimate shows at London's iconic KOKO in Camden. She captivated audiences with her previous hits alongside recent singles and some exclusive new music from the forthcoming album. The Evening Standard heralded the show as "a glorious display" and awarded her five stars.
Ellie's hotly anticipated fifth studio album Higher Than
Heaven is due for release this April 7th and comes fresh of the back of new single By the End of the Night and Miracle - her recent collaboration with Calvin Harris, has peaked at #2 on the UK Official Chart and continues to grow.
Higher Than
Heaven has seen Ellie enlist some of pop music's finest to craft the album with her, Greg Kurstin (Sia, Maggie Rogers, Elton John),
Jessie Shatkin (Charli XCX, Years & Years), Koz (Sam Ryder, Madonna, Dua Lipa) and Andrew Wells (Halsey, Yungblud), with the finished record seeing Ellie put her own spin on modern pop music.
Higher Than
Heaven is jam-packed with infectious hits that see Ellie's signature vocals take centre stage whilst the production is pop music at its finest with stomping basslines, soaring synths and euphoric melodies.
