THE WEEKND SETS STADIUM RUN

The first leg of The Weeknd’s After Hours Til Dawn Tour stadium outing will hit 18 cities, opening in Toronto and closing at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium.

The Live Nation-produced tour, which replaces a planned arena trek, is the first time The Weeknd will be playing songs from After Hours and Dawn FM. He has said it's “his most ambitious production to date.” Doja Cat will open the shows.

The Weeknd is partnering with the United Nations World Food Programme to launch the XO Humanitarian Fund and will contribute $1 from each ticket sold in North America. He is also making a donation of $500k to the fund. $1m will be contributed by World Food Program USA.

Fans who previously had tickets for the After Hours arena tour in North America will have access to a special pre-sale starting Friday.

Pre-sales start Monday, with a Spotify Fans First pre-sale commencing 3/8 and the general on-sale beginning 3/10.

After the North American leg, which will run 7/8-9/2, The Weeknd will play South America, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
