Bruno Mars is officially back—and this time, he’s leading with romance.

The Grammy-winning superstar has announced his fourth solo studio album, The Romantic, set for release on February 27. The project marks Bruno’s first solo album in nearly a decade, following the massive success of 24K Magic in 2016.

Earlier this week, Bruno teased fans by confirming the album was complete. He quickly followed up with full details, including the release date and the announcement that the first single drops this Friday, January 9.

Fans can already pre-order the first vinyl pressing at BrunoMars.com. The release features a classic black record with roses at the center, a black-and-white cover, a red sleeve insert, and an eight-page 12×12 lyric booklet.

Bruno’s return comes after years of collaborative success. His most recent singles include “Fat Juicy & Wet” with Sexyy Red, released in January 2025, and high-profile collaborations with Lady Gaga and ROSÉ. His track with ROSÉ, “APT.” is currently nominated for several Grammys, further cementing his ongoing relevance.

Beyond the album, Bruno also announced The Romantic Tour, his first global tour in nearly ten years. The 40-date run will span North America, Europe, and the UK, officially kicking off on April 10 in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium.

Joining him on all dates is his Silk Sonic collaborator Anderson .Paak, performing as DJ Pee .Wee. Select tour dates will also feature Victoria Monét, RAYE, and Leon Thomas.

Bruno’s last world tour, the 24K Magic World Tour, launched in 2017 and wrapped in 2018, becoming one of the highest-grossing tours of the decade.

Presale details are already live. Fans must register at BrunoMars.com by January 12 to access the Artist Presale on January 14. General ticket sales begin January 15.

With The Romantic, Bruno Mars isn’t just returning—he’s redefining his next era.
