Charli XCX is releasing a limited run of $25 "Angel" tickets for her Music, Fashion, Film North American tour, priced at $20 plus a $5 service charge, sold only in non-transferable pairs. Fans can sign up until 11:59pm local time on August 12 for US and Toronto shows, with seats assigned at random across the venue, including GA floor.

The tour opens at Philadelphia's Xfinity Mobile Arena on September 11, followed by two nights at Brooklyn's Barclays Center and stops in Toronto, Boston and Washington through the rest of September, before October dates in Austin, Atlanta, Las Vegas and two nights at LA's Kia Forum. NME gave the Music, Fashion, Film album four stars, writing that it "can feel fragmentary and fleeting" but that "its celebration of art... feels urgent and timeless."

The tour follows Charli's debut headline appearances at Reading & Leeds this month, and a run of guest spots across the festival circuit: she made a surprise appearance during The Strokes' headline set at Outside Lands to join Julian Casablancas for "Take It Or Leave It," a day after she topped the same San Francisco stage herself, and briefly appeared on video during Djo's set at the same festival.

She also joined Lorde onstage in Chicago for "Girl, So Confusing" during Lollapalooza, where she played her first full headline show of the Music, Fashion, Film era, and recorded an intimate live session from Maida Vale. She has since released a B-sides Edition of the album on iTunes, alongside a companion film.

The tour and pop album's rollout continue on the tour guide and the release calendar.
