The Weeknd has announced new Australian tour dates for his After Hours Til Dawn tour after previously cancelling shows last year.
Two weeks before the superstar was meant to perform in Australia and New Zealand in November and December 2023, it was announced that the tour would be postponed. In April this year the tour was cancelled, and ticketholders were refunded.
The newly announced Australian dates will kick off on Saturday, October 5 in Melbourne with back-to-back shows before heading to Sydney with shows on October 22 and 23 at Accor Stadium.
These dates mark The Weeknd’s debut stadium performances in Australia and his first return to the region since 2017. Mike Dean, Chxrry22 and Sydney’s own Anna Lunoe will join as support on the four Australia dates.
In a statement, The Weeknd said “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’s record-breaking 2022/2023 After Hours Til Dawn Tour saw massive success across North America, Europe, the UK and Latin America with over 60 sold-out stadium dates and more than 3 million attendees.
