Eilish is using Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange to give fans, not scalpers, the best chance to buy tickets at face value. To make this work, tickets will be non-transferable, and the tour may cancel tickets posted elsewhere for more than face value. Fans can still buy and sell their tickets at the original price paid on Ticketmaster.
She is continuing her partnership with environmental nonprofit REVERB on this leg of the tour, which will focus on reducing greenhouse gas pollution, decreasing single-use plastic waste, supporting climate action, and updating concession offerings to promote and encourage plant-based food options with Support+Feed.

Additionally, Eilish will donate 50 percent of the Changemaker ticket to the REVERB Climate Impact Fund and Support+Feed.
The Billie Eilish REVERB Eco-Villages will be set up in the main concourse of every show where fans can take part in the tour’s sustainability efforts, connect with nonprofits, and take meaningful action for people and the planet.
Fans are encouraged to join the effort to make the HIT ME HARD AND SOFT: THE TOUR more sustainable. Where possible, take public transportation and carpool to and from the shows to help reduce greenhouse gas pollution and encourage more public transportation options. Fans will receive information via email about public transportation options before the show.
Venue partners are also helping to lessen the environmental footprint of the tour. In addition to efforts to decrease waste through reducing or eliminating single-use plastics and diverting landfill waste with compost and recycling, venues will be offering plant-based food options at all shows.
