Carrie Underwood is weeks away from heading out on her Cry Pretty Tour 360, which begins on May 1 in Greensboro, North Carolina.
The trek is Underwood’s first tour since her Storyteller Tour in 2016, and this time, the American Idol winner will be a mom of two when she heads out on the road. Underwood will be accompanied by an all-female lineup as she takes her 2018 album, Cry Pretty, out for a spin, impressing audiences with her stage presence, wardrobe changes and her signature powerhouse voice.

Read on to learn more about Underwood’s upcoming tour.
The tour has an all-female lineup
Underwood will be joined by openers Maddieย & Tae and Runaway June, and she noted during an appearance on theย Women Want to Hear Womenย podcastย that the two groups more than earned their slots in the lineup.
“First and foremost, they’ve earned it,” the Oklahoma native said. “I’m not throwing anybody a bone by taking them out on tour with me. They deserve to be there and they’re gonna put on a great show, and I’m already proud of all that they’ve done. I’m a fan. But it’s good when women support women.”

The show will be in the round
Like Underwood’s Storyteller Tour, the Cry Pretty Tour 360 will take place in the round, giving fans from all angles the best chance to see the 36-year-old as she struts her stuff on stage.
“I love performing in the round,” Underwood said in a statement, via Billboard.ย “It’s so much fun for me and the band to play in every direction and creates a much more intimate and immersive experience for the audience, even in a larger arena setting.”
Both of Underwood’s kids will join her
The star’s 4-year-old son, Isaiah, joined his mom on her previous tour, but this trek will be Underwood’s first as a mom of two, as she and husband Mike Fisher welcomed son Jacob in January.
“It’s going to be a different ball game, for sure,” she told the Tennessean of touring with two kids. “My brain, I’m such a planner. I want to know how it’s all going to go. But no matter who you are, you make it happen, you make it work, you get your team behind you.”
Jacob Bryan Fisher entered the world in the wee hours of the morning on Monday…his mom, dad and big brother couldnโt be happier for God to trust them with taking care of this little miracle!

The tour travels to two continents
Underwood will travel the United States and Canada on the tour, stopping in cities like Lasย Vegas, Toronto, Losย Angeles, Dallas and Nashville. She’ll also cross the pond for a handful of U.K. dates during the summer, including stops in Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow, Manchester and London.
Rehearsals are well underway
The Oklahoma native has been sharing a number of photos from tour rehearsals, revealing that she and her band are hard at work putting together a show that fans are sure to love.
“I feel like fans are really going to be able to feel the love and all the hard work that has gone into this tour,” she said. “There’s so many people that have thought long and hard about how to make this show better than anything that we’ve ever done before. I think it’ll be easy to sit in the audience and recognize that.”
