Since her debut in 2013, Japanese-born English singer-songwriter Rina Sawayama has embarked on four concert tours. She has performed at 26 music festivals, twelve one-off concerts, six television shows, four radio shows and three award ceremonies, reaching 22 countries across four different continents. Her fourth concert tour, the Hold the Girl Reloaded Tour began in June 2023 in support of her second studio album, Hold the Girl.

Sawayama began her live career with a November 2017 performance at London's Pickle Factory, a venue with a capacity of 150.[1][2] She later performed more shows in London, as well as in New York City and Los Angeles, before beginning her first official tour in 2018, the Ordinary Superstar Tour. The tour supported Sawayama's debut extended play Rina, visiting 5 major North American cities, and London.[3][4]

In 2019, Sawayama began performing in music festivals and joined as a support act on Charli XCX's Charli Live Tour in the United Kingdom.[5] In January 2020, Sawayama announced The Dynasty Tour in support of her debut album Sawayama (2020), which would've seen her perform in the United States, Canada and the UK between April and May 2020,[6] but the tour was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The tour was postponed a second and third time before eventually taking place between November 2021 and May 2022.[7][8]

In May 2022, shortly after concluding The Dynasty Tour, Sawayama announced the first leg of the Hold the Girl Tour in support of her second studio album, Hold the Girl (2022), consisting of shows in the United Kingdom and Ireland.[9] Later legs of the tour would visit the United States, Australasia, Japan and mainland Europe.[10][11][12][13]
