Kylie Minogue has toured all over the world during her multi-platinum, two-decade career, but never in the U.S. and Canada. That’s about to change.

The Australian pop icon has announced she will embark on her first North American tour this fall, hitting six cities including New York, Los Angeles and Toronto.

“I’ve wanted to tour in America and Canada for years, and know that fans have been waiting a long time for this,” said the Grammy Award winner in a statement. “I’m thrilled that the opportunity has finally arrived.”

Tickets for the general public go on sale the weekend of May 15. Check out the singer’s official website here for more information.

To date, Minogue has sold more than 40 million albums and undertaken eight sold-out world tours, including last year’s “KylieX2008″ tour. The trek took the singer to 21 countries and generated an estimated $70 million in ticket sales.

Her latest release, “Boombox: The Remix Album 2000-2008,” hit stores earlier this year. She also plans to enter the studio to begin work on her 11th studio album.

Here are Minogue’s upcoming North American tour dates:

- Sept. 30 – Oakland, CA (Fox Theatre)
- Oct. 3 – Las Vegas, NV (The Pearl at Palms Hotel & Casino)
- Oct. 4 – Los Angeles, CA (Hollywood Bowl)
- Oct. 7 – Chicago, IL (Congress Theater)
- Oct. 9 – Toronto, ON (Air Canada Centre)
- Oct. 11 – New York, NY (Hammerstein Ballroom)
