Pop provocateur Slayyyter brings her WOR$T GIRL IN THE WORLD Tour to Emo’s in Austin on Thursday, September 17, 2026, at 8:00 PM. Resale tickets are currently starting around $356 due to thin remaining inventory — check the box office or additional resale platforms for potentially lower-priced options as the date approaches.
Slayyyter built a devoted online fanbase through hyperpop-adjacent, maximalist pop songs that lean into camp, glamour, and unapologetic bad-girl persona, drawing early comparisons to 2000s pop icons while carving out her own lane. She’s collaborated with artists including Charli XCX and Kesha, and her recent work has continued pushing her sound toward bigger, more polished pop production while keeping the winking, hyper-online sensibility that built her fanbase in the first place.
Emo’s stage and production capabilities make it well-suited to a pop show built on spectacle, and the venue has increasingly become a stop for pop and hyperpop-adjacent acts alongside its rock and metal roots.
Slayyyter’s collaborations and festival appearances have helped her cross over from internet-native pop stardom into a broader mainstream profile, and her live shows have built a reputation for high-energy, visually driven performances. Fans looking to make a full night of downtown Austin can also check out Emo’s sister venues nearby, including Mohawk, just a short trip away on the East Side.
Emo’s has anchored Austin’s rock and alternative scene for decades, and its current East Riverside location gives touring acts a bigger stage and better sightlines than the venue’s earlier downtown home while keeping the same reputation for booking acts across punk, metal, hip-hop, and everything in between. The room’s industrial-leaning design and heavyweight sound system have made it a favorite stop for bands looking to bring real production energy to a mid-sized Austin crowd, and its booking history spans genres in a way few other venues in the city can match. Both the indoor stage and adjoining outdoor space give visitors options for how close to get to the action.
Doors typically open about an hour before the 8:00 PM set. Emo’s is a standing-room venue, so plan to arrive early for a good spot near the stage.
