Update November 3, 2023: Live Nation has just announced that due to "unforeseen circumstances" the Weeknd has had to postpone the upcoming Australian and New Zealand legs of his After Hours Til Dawn tour. Find out more over here.
Pack your sunglasses and prepare to be blinded by the lights – The Weeknd has announced a number of Antipodean dates as part of the extended After Hours Til Dawn Tour.
Hot on the heels of the record-breaking European tour, the three-time Grammy-award-winning starboy will perform in Sydney on November 24, 25 and 27 at Accor Stadium. The tour will celebrate the Weeknd’s 2020 album After Hours, which features the hit award-winning single ‘Blinding Lights’, which peaked at number one globally and was crowned the new No.1 Billboard Hot 100 song of all time.
Born Abel Makkonen Tesfaye – known now as The Weeknd – the singer first gained critical and commercial success with his debut studio album Kiss Land and subsequent albums Beauty Behind the Madness (2015), Starboy (2016), My Dear Melancholy (2018), After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022). Concertgoers can expect to hear tracks from across the years, including chart-topping anthems like ‘Can’t Feel My Face’, ‘Starboy’, ‘Blinding Lights’, ‘Heartless’ and ‘Save Your Tears’.
As a United Nations World Programme ambassador, Tesafye has said he will contribute funds from the next leg of his tour to the XO Humanitarian Fund, which supports the response to the global food crisis. Over $1 million was raised for the fund via ticket sales during the recently wrapped European tour.
