Hours after The Weeknd’s latest album released, the Toronto crooner revealed his North American stadium tour for this summer with two stops in his hometown.
The “After Hours Til Dawn” tour with rapper Playboi Carti and record producer Mike Dean will kick off in Phoenix, Ariz., on May 9 before making its way across the U.S. and Canada, ending in San Antonio, Texas on Sept. 3.
The singer-turned-actor is playing five shows across Canada in Vancouver, Edmonton, Montreal and Toronto. In Toronto, he will play back-to-back shows at the Rogers Centre on July 27 and July 28.
Live Nation promotes the stadium tour as a “never-before-seen-production” featuring tracks from his latest project “Hurry Up Tomorrow” to hits off “After Hours” and “Dawn FM.”
The 22-track LP “Hurry Up Tomorrow” boasts guest features from Lana Del Rey, Travis Scott, Justice, and Playboi Carti, to name a few.
Fans can sign up for the artist presale on Live Nation until 9 a.m. on Feb 4, with the presale going live on Feb. 5 at 10 a.m. local time through Feb. 6 at 9 a.m.
General sale will then kick off on Feb. 7 at 10 a.m.
During his last tour, also named “After Hours Til Dawn,” the Scarborough-raised artist faced several setbacks in trying to perform at the Rogers Centre in 2022.
First off, Doja Cat—the opening act—dropped out a month before the tour was set to begin due to a tonsil surgery. Secondly, his July performance was forced to reschedule due to the nationwide Rogers network outage, and then in early September, he lost his voice during his Los Angeles concert, causing him to postpone the performance again.
