Four stadium dates scheduled for summer 2023
The Weeknd has announced a special end-of-summer show at Wembley Stadium for his highly anticipated After Hours til Dawn 2023 Tour. This latest date is scheduled for Friday, August 18th and will be a night to celebrate this incredible 29-date stadium tour run.
Tickets for this additional date will go on sale starting Friday, December 16th at noon local time via Ticketmaster.
The Wembley date is the third for London following two performances at London Stadium on July 7-8.
The European and Latin American leg his After Hours Til Dawn Tour 2023 will kick off Saturday, June 10th in Manchester, UK at Etihad Stadium, with stops in Stockholm, Amsterdam, Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro, and more before wrapping up in Santiago, Chile on Sunday, October 15th at Estadio Bicentenario de La Florida.
The completely sold out North American leg of the stadium tour was an incredible success breaking attendance records and grossing over $130 million dollars to date.
United Nations World Food Programme Goodwill Ambassador Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye will again partner with the UN World Food Programme to contribute funds from the second leg of the tour to the XO Humanitarian Fund, which supports the organization’s response to the unprecedented global hunger crisis. €1 from each ticket sold across Europe, £1 in the UK and the $1 equivalent in countries across Latin America will go to this important cause. The fund raised money during the North American leg of the tour through ticket sales, proceeds from an exclusive tour t-shirt, and a $500,000 donation directly from The Weeknd. The Weeknd’s corporate partners, tour venues, World Food Program USA board of directors and supporters also stepped up to contribute, as well as tour sponsor Binance, who contributed US $2 million to the fund. The first grant of $2 million will be going to provide emergency food and nutrition assistance to the most food-insecure regions of Ethiopia.
The tour celebrates The Weeknd’s 2020 album After Hours — its hit single “Blinding Lights” was named the new No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 song of all time, surpassing Chubby Checker’s 1960 hit “The Twist” — as well as his critically-acclaimed album Dawn FM, which was released January 2022. Kaytranada and Mike Dean will join The Weeknd on all European dates.
The After Hours Til Dawn Tour is powered by Binance, the global blockchain ecosystem behind the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, bringing Web 3.0 technology to concert-goers worldwide. Ticket holders receive souvenir NFTs as well as gain access to an exclusive NFT collection for The Weeknd’s tour, in collaboration with HXOUSE, a think-center and community incubator for creative entrepreneurs. Five percent of the sales from the upcoming tour NFT collection will be donated to the XO Humanitarian Fund.
