Billie Eilish kicks off Happier Than Ever, the 2022 World Tour
February 17th, 2022
On February 3rd, Billie Eilish launched the North American leg of her world tour in support of her album, Happier Than Ever.
Moment Factory provided stage design, content creation, and the overall creative direction of the concert experience. The show direction features large-scale multimedia activations with video content and lighting designed to subsume the stage and stadium. To bring Billie Eilish into closer proximity with her audience, the stage design unlocks immersive worlds that unwrap onto an expansive video surface. Sometimes dark and other times dreamy, each world comes into play inside Billie Eilish’s performances.
The tour marks a major milestone in Moment Factory’s ongoing collaboration with Billie Eilish, which includes contributing creative direction for her 2020 Where Do We Go? World Tour that was halted due to the pandemic. As an extension of the experience, Where Do We Go? The Livestream used extended reality to reimagine the arena tour as a fully immersive virtual concert for fans to experience at home.
Over the past year, we’ve also teamed up on several live performances, including Billie Eilish’s 2021 festival tour and her appearances on shows such as Saturday Night Live, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
