Originally scheduled for December of 2023 with shows extending to Brisbane and into New Zealand, the logistical constraints of the tour mean that only Melbourne and Sydney will witness the Weeknd magic. No further cities or dates will be added. As one of the worlds most popular artists and most streamed artists thanks to his tracks ‘Starboy’, ‘Save Your Tears’ and ‘Blinding Lights’, along with 2020 album After Hours, The Weeknd has set the music world alight and his tour is a reflection of that stardom.
“I feel a strong pull to perform in Australia before moving on to the next chapter and want to make sure you all know I hadn’t forgotten about you. When I return now, it will be the right time, and I promise it will be such a special experience. I can’t wait to see you all!” says The Weeknd of the new shows.
Along for the ride are Mike Dean, Chxrry22 and Sydney’s own Anna Lunoe as support on the four Australia dates.
