The upcoming tour supports Kylie Minogue's forthcoming studio album, Tension II, which will be released on October 18, 2024. The album will be released via Darenote, BMG, and Liberator. The album is a sequel to the 2023 album Tension.
Kylie Minogue elaborated on the first Tension album in an interview with Numero, which was published on October 2, 2023, stating in response to the question of why the album was titled Tension:
"We first considered Vegas High as a title for the album, which is one of the tracks on the record and alludes to my future residency in Las Vegas, which starts in November 2023."
Kylie Minogue continued:
"But Tension seemed more intriguing. There was a moment when I said to myself: “I hope it doesn’t sound too depressing. On the news, the word is used in a negative way. But once we made that decision, I was really surprised to see how well it was received by the public. People have been really looking forward to an album called Tension.”
Tension, the first album, was released on September 22, 2023. The album was a major success upon its release. The album charted as a chart-topper on the Australia album chart.
