The Spiraling Tour was the third headlining concert tour by American singer-songwriter and producer Caroline Polachek, in support of her fourth studio album, and second under her name, Desire, I Want to Turn Into You (2023). The tour began on 10 February 2023 in Brighton, England, and concluded on 13 December 2023 in Brisbane, Australia.

On December 12, 2022, Polachek announced the European and American legs of the tour alongside the release of the music video for the single "Welcome to My Island". Support for all UK and European dates came from Doss, while special guests throughout the US tour included Ethel Cain, Sudan Archives, George Clanton, Toro Y Moi, Alex G and Magdalena Bay. On 22 August 2023, Polachek announced the Australian leg of the tour, with True Blue opening for the shows.

Caroline Polachek performs at the Warfield in San Francisco, California on May 1, 2023.

The shows often began with lights pouring over the stage and a cracked clock appearing on the screen, counting down from a minute. At the end of the minute, "Welcome to My Island" was performed as the opening track. For the headline concert dates, all 12 songs from Desire, I Want to Turn Into You were played, often continuing in a similar order as the album. The final song to play was "So Hot You're Hurting My Feelings", followed by a two-song encore of "Hopedrunk Everasking" and "Door". In a blog post, KOOP 91.7 Radio commented that "while most songs had a clear start and end, these blended together nicely".

The set featured a large volcano as the primary backdrop, with smoking billowing from the top, and other smaller volcano peaks being placed around the stage.

This set list is from the concert on 24 April 2023, in Houston, Texas, United States. It is not intended to represent all tour dates.
