Harry Styles is facing criticism for artwork featured on tickets for his "Together, Together Tour" that some fans have deemed insensitive due to its visual resemblance to the events of September 11th. The artwork, displayed on tickets for a concert held on Wednesday, September 9, depicts a yellow car, possibly carrying Styles, flying over the Empire State Building with a trail behind it near the building's spire.
The timing of the ticket's release, just two days before the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, has drawn sharp reactions on social media. Users expressed dismay, with comments such as "putting that on the back the week of 9/11 is f–king insane" and "A little bold given its 9/11 week in NYC." Another expressed disbelief, questioning, "literally who approved this?"
New York City is preparing to commemorate the nearly 3,000 lives lost in the 2001 terrorist attacks, which remain the deadliest in United States history.
Styles is currently in the midst of a 30-night residency at Madison Square Garden in New York City, which began on August 26 and is scheduled to conclude on October 31. This residency is part of his "Together, Together Tour," his third solo tour supporting his fourth studio album. Following his New York shows, Styles is scheduled to perform in Australia, with his NYC dates being his only U.S. stop on the tour.
In a recent email to fans, Styles announced plans to reveal additional 2027 dates for the "Together, Together Tour" on September 10. He described the upcoming dates as the tour's "final cities" and expressed uncertainty about his future professional endeavors after the tour concludes, stating he is "excited to find out" what comes next. He is reportedly engaged to actress Zoë Kravitz.
