Doja Cat pulled off the ACL Music Festival 2025 bill last August with a blunt explanation: the album and the tour weren’t ready. That kind of candor is rarer than it should be in the festival business. Fourteen months later, Vie is out on Kemosabe/RCA Records and the Tour Ma Vie World Tour is underway. Austin gets a proper date on the North American leg: Tuesday, November 3, 2026, at Moody Center, at 7:30 p.m. Latto opens.
About the Show
Vie, released September 26, 2025, is Doja Cat’s fifth studio album, a 15-track set the tour press materials describe as “an adventurous project that pays homage to the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s.” Austin coverage has framed it as “a return to a more pop sound” following the harder-edged Scarlet in 2023. The record was built over three years at Miraval Studios in Correns, France; SZA takes the sole guest credit. Recent singles include “Jealous Type” (featuring Kenny G) and “Gorgeous,” both with music videos directed by Bardia Zeinali.
Doja Cat started uploading music to SoundCloud in 2013, at age 16, and released her debut studio album in 2018. The catalog built since has some durable numbers: “Say So” certified 6x platinum, “Kiss Me More” with SZA at 5x, “Paint The Town Red” at 4x, “Agora Hills” at 2x. One Grammy win from 19 nominations; five AMAs; five Billboard Music Awards; five MTV VMAs. TIME named her to its 100 Most Influential People list in 2023. Tour press notes a milestone: with Scarlet and Vie, she became the first female rapper and the first Black woman of the century to release two fully solo-written studio albums.
The Tour Ma Vie World Tour is billed as her biggest run to date. The North American leg opens October 1 at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit and closes December 1 at Madison Square Garden in New York. The Texas stretch hits four cities in four days: Austin on November 3, Dallas on November 4, San Antonio on November 6, Houston on November 7.
