The Weeknd is gearing up for his shows on November 26 and 27, which was initially scheduled for one night on September 3, a show that was postponed due to unforeseen circumstances. The shows are set for SoFi Stadium, closing out the 2022 portion of his global After Hours Til Dawn tour.
The newly added date will be the last chance for fans to see this tour and its next-level production in North America. The stadium tour has been an incredible success, selling out every show across 20 dates, breaking attendance records and grossing over $125 million dollars to date.

At the beginning of October, The Weeknd unveiled the third trailer I for his HBO Max series, The Idol, premiering in 2023, The Weeknd shines a light on the glamour and intoxication of showbiz, reintroducing the modern rockstar’s trifecta: sex, money, and drugs.
