The Weeknd has officially confirmed his return to Australia in 2024.
This marks his first stadium tour in Australia since 2017 after an anticipated 2023 tour fell through. While this year’s show is the singer’s second shot at his After Hours Til Dawn tour down under, the tour schedule will no longer include Brisbane and Auckland shows due to challenging tour logistics.
This October, the highly anticipated tour produced by Live Nation will kick off with two consecutive shows at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium (Saturday, 5 and Sunday, October 6), followed by two shows at Sydney’s Accor Stadium (Tuesday, 22 and Wednesday, October 23).
“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!” The Weeknd says of the upcoming tour.
