Some concerts in England included cities such as Leeds, Manchester, London and also Wolverhampton – which was Liam Payne’s hometown. 

Zayn notably paid a special tribute to the late star during the concert and after he left the stage, a backdrop appeared with the words: ‘Liam Payne 1993-2024. Love you bro.’

And according to social media videos, Malik expressed that he ‘hoped’ Payne was watching his show. 

‘I’ve been doing something, at the end of the show, every night, and it’s been dedicated to my brother Liam Payne. Rest in peace,’ Zayn said. ‘I hope you’re seeing this, we’re in your hometown tonight, Wolverhampton, this is for you, Liam.’  

Back in December, the singer was slated to perform in Newcastle – but cancelled the concert last minute. 

He later took to social media to offer an explanation to his fans and penned on his Instagram stories at the time: ‘I’m so sorry to do this but my voice just isn’t there at all tonight and without it there’s no show.’ 

‘I’m truly sorry to let you down, especially at such short notice…I held onto hope until the very last moment.’ 

Zayn continued, ‘I’m hopeful with some rest tonight I’ll be back on stage tomorrow. My deepest apologies Newcastle love you all xx.’

Malik was accompanied by an all-female live band for the duration of his tour stops in the United States and England. 

The band includes guitarist Molly Miller, the drummer who goes by Baby Bulldog, singers Lisa Ramey, Tahira Clayton and Rebecca Haviland, keyboard player Tina Hizon and bᴀssist Ryan Madora. 

In December, Lisa shared a pH๏τo of herself with Zayn and the other live band members with the caption: ‘The ladies say hello.’ 

Social media users quickly praised the all-female band, with one writing, ‘Zayn’s all girl band is the H๏τtest thing he could’ve done.’

Another typed, ‘Zayn really said “NO MEN IN MY BAND” i feel u z, women are always better, i love u for that,’ and a fan added, ‘Zayn’s all-women band calling themselves “ZWEETIES” – everything about this tour is so wholesome and cute man.’

And while touring the U.S., Malik also made stops in cities such as Los Angeles, Washington D.C., New York City and San Francisco.

Tomlinson’s appearance at the show further proved that the pair’s ‘feud’ had come to an end – years after their relationship became strained when Malik quit the boy band in 2015. 

While on stage, the performer gave a special shout out to Louis and told the crowd, ‘Tonight’s something special. An old friend of mine is here for me tonight.’ 

‘He’s hidden somewhere here. I don’t want to give his location away, but Louis is here tonight.’
