Cyndi Lauper was one of the great pop-music characters of the ’80s, and her music and persona still have plenty of juice today; she just joined Nicki Minaj onstage in Brooklyn a month ago. Right now, Lauper is in look-back mode. Tomorrow, Let The Canary Sing, a new documentary about Lauper’s life and career, will make its debut on Paramount+. And today, Cyndi Lauper has announced her farewell tour.

Farewell tours are pretty common in pop music, and they’re not exactly binding. Plenty of people retire from the road and then return soon afterward, when the price is right. But Cyndi Lauper is about to turn 71, and while it seems likely that she’ll play live shows when the spirit moves her, you can understand why she might not want to continue on the road for much longer. Lauper’s announcement for the Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell tour doesn’t include any quotes about why she’s stepping away from the road. It’s being billed as her first full-scale trek in a decade.

In any case, this farewell tour will hit arenas across North America this fall, and it’ll end at Chicago’s United Center in December. Before the tour kicks off, she’ll play London’s Royal Albert Hall, Glastonbury, and Rock In Rio. The announcement promises “special guests,” but no openers have been announced yet. Check out those tour dates below.
