No dates yet.

 

But Weeknd moving to stadiums would suggest he's trying Europe next summer

He was meant to be doing the Hydro in Glasgow next month and even standing wasn't sold out (probs due to insane prices). Can't see how he cold do a stadium here so maybe he just won't have a Glasgow date or maybe do Glasgow Green or Bellahouston park like RHCP

Is he big enough for stadiums? I know The Weeknd is a massive act but I thought more festival headline than a Wembley kinda act.

This is when he sells it out and I look like an idiot ha.

Does seem a little ambitious for him, here in the U.K. at least. He’s big but he’s not quite a bonafide megastar just yet. Given that he’a giving out refunds I can see him scrapping the multiple dates and just doing one stadium date instead.

Biffy Clyro have announced some acoustic shows.

Underworld updating their social media so hopefully they'll be touring soon

You mean cause he didnt just perform at the Super Bowl halftime show to a tv audience of 100 million? And had one of the biggest songs last year? Yeah ok.  
 

There is an easy way to ensure the dates sell out and that is with very strong support acts. So a bill with The Weeknd, Lana Del Rey and Doja Cat couldn’t sell out Wembley?

Doing the superbowl show doesn't mean you can sell out UK stadiums.

Based on how may London o2 shows he had he probs could sell Wembley stadiu, tbf. Dunno about elsewhere. His one Glasgow date still had tix yday.

Lana del Rey in a stadium sounds awful tbh.

Do you always need to come at people with some snarky comment when they downplay an act you like? 😄

And you can’t go from one minute claiming this guy is a giant megastar who can sell out stadiums to the next claiming he needs two huge support acts to do so. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

But would a The Weeknd headline slot slap? I'm not certain...... but I think it might.

[dentalplan]

It'd be exactly the right time for him to do it and I think he'd crush it.

Ride tour next April

I was absolutely thrilled to win tickets to their last tour local to me. It was one of those “comment below” fb comps.

I checked afterwards... apart from me only one other person had bothered 🤣

Refunding everyone and then giving them access to a presale for more expensive dates and making them pay booking fees again

[Suprefan]

 

[Padjeq]

Giving all that money back and then charging again? Big move by the Weekend there. The Guardian did a Top Earners in music list a few years back, and he was number 1 ahead of people like Beyonce and Drake.

I bet part of it is just wanting to finally end this era and be on something new by October 2022.

Awful poster design, I'd just assume that was sold out at a glance

I felt the same. Red means sold out. They shoulda gone with white or even the same gold for the handwritten style dates.

[DomDom1984]

I thought it was pretty easy to understand tbh

[dentalplan]

Agree. It’s just that h.i.t.h logo that looks like it says ‘bitch’ on scrolling that makes me take a second glance.

[priest17]

I think the C I got in A level graphics really gives me the authority on this debate
