After Paris and Nice, The Weeknd announces a new concert date in France. The Canadian artist will perform at the Stade Pierre Mauroy on July 3, 2026 alongside rapper Playboi Carti.
This concert is the artist’s third show in France as part of his After Hours Til Dawn tour, which began in 2022. The pre-sale for this show in Lille will go online starting October 16 at 12 p.m. on the Stade Pierre Mauroy website.
A rumor born on Instagram
Many fans had been speculating for several hours about The Weeknd’s arrival in Lille after an enigmatic publication on social networks. This Wednesday, October 8, the artist’s tour Instagram account published photographs of five performance venues in Europe.
In these photographs, taken in Manchester, Lisbon, Copenhagen, Barcelona and Lille, we could see a poster for The Weeknd’s tour, casting doubt on the artist’s arrival in each of these cities. The information was quickly transmitted by fan accounts, before finally being confirmed by The Weeknd himself.
The After Hours Til Dawn tour, kicking off in 2022, celebrates The Weeknd’s trilogy of hit albums. After hours (2020), Dawn FM (2022) and Hurry tomorrow (2025) through spectacular performances and sets worthy of its fame.
Acclaimed around the world, it became the largest R’n’B tour in history, playing on several continents: North America, Europe, the United Kingdom, South America and Australia.
Recently, The Weeknd had another success: his hit blinding lights surpassed the milestone of 5 billion listens on Spotify, a record for the streaming platform.
