The Weeknd: 'After Hours Til Dawn' Tour

Overview

Melbourne, you'll feel it coming after all: in what's been a chaotic time for fans keen to see Abel 'The Weeknd' Tesfaye Down Under, the musician is finally bringing his After Hours Til Dawn tour this way. Come October 2024, the Canadian singer-songwriter and The Idol star will hit the city for two gigs — and also play two in Sydney.

The details for your diary: The Weeknd is taking to the stage in the Victorian capital at Marvel Stadium on Saturday, October 5–Sunday, October 6, with Mike Dean, Chxrry22 and Anna Lunoe in support.

An  arena spectacular, The Weeknd's global tour began in 2022, notching up soldout shows far and wide. In the UK, The Weekend saw 160,000 folks head to London Stadium across two nights, smashing the venue's attendance record. And in Milan, he became the first artist to sell out the Ippodromo La Maura for two nights.

It was in August last year that The Weeknd announced that his latest massive stadium tour was on its way to both Australia and New Zealand in November and December 2023 — even adding extra shows before general tickets went on sale — only for it to be postponed just two weeks out "due to unforeseen circumstances" without new dates being set. Then, in April 2024, the tour was cancelled for the time being, with ticketholders receiving refunds. Next, since August 2024, it's back on.
