As the Brat era keeps expanding, Charli XCX is making sure part of its impact reaches beyond the stage.
The pop star has announced that a portion of ticket sales from her upcoming Music, Fashion, Film tour will benefit Transgender Law Center, bringing direct financial support to a trans-led organization while also putting trans artistry front and center on the road.
The run includes 12 shows across 10 cities in the United States and Canada, with stops in Philadelphia, New York, Toronto, Boston, Washington D.C., Atlanta, San Diego, Los Angeles, Glendale and Las Vegas.
For an artist whose audience has become synonymous with queer nightlife, internet culture and community-building, the announcement feels less like a surprise and more like a continuation.
Front Row Seats With Real-World Impact
The donation initiative ties directly into premium seating, with half of proceeds from the first five rows supporting Transgender Law Center’s work.
The organization describes itself as a trans-led group working to protect and expand the freedom of transgender and gender-nonconforming people to live safely and authentically.
Its mission statement reads:
“Prioritizing BIPOC, disabled, and HIV+ communities, we advance community-driven strategies that harness trans knowledge, power, and joy to ensure that we all not only survive but thrive at all ages and phases of life.”
Charli is also introducing another access-focused option for fans. Each stop on the tour will include a limited number of $20 “angel tickets,” which will become available later this summer. A portion of those ticket sales will also go toward charitable causes.
Fans can sign up now for pre-sale access, with the first batch of tickets scheduled to release June 12 at 9 a.m. ET.

Bringing Trans Talent On Tour
The support isn’t limited to donations.
Opening every date of the tour is Underscores, the hyperpop artist and producer whose work has earned a devoted following across internet music circles. Having a trans woman open each show adds another layer to a tour that already sits inside a fan ecosystem heavily shaped by LGBTQ+ listeners.
Charli’s career has long overlapped with queer spaces, from club culture and underground pop scenes to collaborators who helped define modern hyperpop.
That connection became especially visible earlier this year at the 2025 Brit Awards.
Charli’s Tribute To SOPHIE Still Hits
While accepting British Dance Act at the ceremony, Charli reflected on the artists who shaped her understanding of dance music.
She thanked longtime collaborator A.G. Cook alongside artists including Robyn, Daft Punk, M.I.A., Honey Dijon and Arca.
Then she closed with a moment that resonated deeply with fans.
“…And of course, someone who none of us would be up here without, SOPHIE.”
The late producer’s influence on contemporary pop remains difficult to overstate, and Charli has repeatedly credited SOPHIE with opening the door to the world that would eventually help shape Brat.
Now, with a tour built around music, style and film, and one that also includes direct support for trans advocacy and trans creatives, Charli appears to be carrying that ethos into her next chapter.
Brat summer may have evolved, but the community-first energy is clearly staying on schedule.
