The tour celebrates The Weeknd’s 2020 album After Hours - it’s hit single “Blinding Lights” was named the new No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 song of all time - as well as his critically-acclaimed album Dawn FM, which was released January 2022. The singer will be supported by Kaytranada and Mike Dean, who will join The Weeknd on all European dates.
The completely sold-out North American leg of the tour broke attendance records and grossed over $130 million dollars to date. In September, the singer, who also goes by Abel Tesfaye, was forced to cancel a performance in California mid-way through after losing his voice. After performing three songs, the 32-year-old musician announced to an audience of 70,000 at the Sofi Stadium that he had to end the show after he lost his voice in the middle of 'Can't Feel My Face'.
