The Weeknd Announces 104-Date ‘After Hours World Tour 2022’
– The Weeknd
After Hours 2020
In the first world tour announced for 2022 and surely the biggest arena tour announced since the coronavirus pandemic began, The Weeknd will embark on a 104-date tour that includes multiple nights in major markets, stops in tertiary markets, and a full run of the UK and continental Europe.
The tour kicks off on Jan. 14 in Vancouver at Pepsi Live at Rogers Arena with stops in Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, Miami, Paris, Berlin and more, before wrapping Nov. 16 in London at The O2. There’s currently a break between the May 1 end of the North American Tour (at the Tacoma Dome in Washington) and the Sept. 10 beginning of the Europe leg (Helsinki, Finland.
The worldwide tour announcement comes just days ahead of the multi-platinum singer’s headlining Super Bowl performance, and also includes a handful of rescheduled dates shifting from 2021 to be a part of the “After Hours World Tour” in 2022.
With the addition of 39 new tour dates, The Weeknd will also release The Highlights on Friday, Feb. 5, described as not a “Greatest Hits” album but providing a new listener a sample of some of the artist’s best work.
Tickets to the Live Nation go on sale Feb. 8 at 10 a.m. local time.
It may seem like a long time ago, but The Weeknd’s 2017 tour firmly established him as a major touring headliner. His 2017 “Starboy: Legend Of The Fall Tour” came in at No. 16 on Pollstar’s Year End Top 100 Worldwide Tours that year, with $80 million grossed on 76 shows. He was also a fixture as a festival headliner in 2018, playing major events like Outside Lands, Life Is Beauitful and many others. He continues to be represented by WME.
