In a post on Instagram, Horan reached out to his supporters, stating, “Lovers! I’m almost done with the tour set list but it’s gotten so much tougher. So I need your help.” This plea for assistance provides fans with an opportunity to influence which tracks will be performed during the shows.
To facilitate the selection process, Horan has created a dedicated website where fans can choose their preferred songs from his four solo albums: *Flicker* (2017), *Heartbreak Weather* (2020), *The Show* (2023), and *Dinner Party* (2026). Notably, music from his former band, One Direction, is excluded from the options, although Horan has performed the group’s hit “Steal My Girl” on a few occasions this year.
Fans are encouraged to indicate which concert they plan to attend and provide their email addresses when submitting their song choices. A note on the website reads, “With four albums, it’s becoming harder and harder to build a setlist,” inviting fans to play an active role in the tour’s experience.
Kicking off in September, the U.K. and Europe leg of the tour will extend until November, after which Horan is scheduled to visit Australia in February. Following this, he will make his way to North America in March 2027.
Horan’s most recent album, *Dinner Party*, debuted in June and achieved commercial success, peaking at No. 7 on the Billboard 200 chart. The album includes three singles: its title track, “Little More Time,” and “End of an Era,” further showcasing Horan’s evolution as a solo artist.
In a previous discussion with Rolling Stone, Horan teased elements of his forthcoming setlist. He noted, “You could go on forever. Four albums is fun to work with, though,” before hinting at the possibility of revisiting songs that may have disappeared from previous tours.
Reflecting on the creative process, Horan shared insights about the setlist’s fluid nature. He enjoys the challenge of integrating tracks from different albums, emphasising how songs from his debut might intriguingly complement newer material. “I like to take people on a bit of an up and down rollercoaster throughout the gig, obviously come out with a bang,” he explained.
As the tour approaches, excitement continues to build among fans eager to witness Horan’s live performances and hear their favourite songs. With the interactive setlist creation, attendees can feel a sense of involvement, knowing they’ve had a hand in shaping the experience.
For fans of Niall Horan, the Dinner Party: Live on Tour signifies not just a showcase of music, but an opportunity to engage in a shared experience, bridging the gap between artist and audience as they come together for what promises to be a memorable series of shows.
