Kendrick Lamar could easily take the next year off, considering the epic year he’s had thus far but that won’t be the case heading into the following year. Kendrick Lamar and frequent collaborator SZA will embark upon the North American 19-city Grand National Tour, kicking off in the spring.
The Grand National Tour was announced on Tuesday (December 3), just over a week since the release of Kendrick Lamar’s first full-length project GNX on his pgLang recording label and entertainment brand. SZA joined Lamar on GNX standout track “luther,” and has recorded hits with the Compton, Calif. native which include crowdpleasers such as “All The Stars,” among others.

However, Cash App Visa Card holders will have access to a pre-sale event on Wednesday (December 4) at 10 am local time.

The Goo Goo Dolls apologized to fans on Tuesday (Dec. 3) after announcing that they’ve been forced to cancel a planned run of headlining shows in South Africa after singer John Rzeznik was hospitalized with pneumonia. “We’re heartbroken to postpone our South Africa shows. This country means so much to us, and we were so […]

Luis Miguel took his spectacular 2023-24 world tour to a new level on Saturday (Nov. 30), on what was a historic night for the Mexican superstar during his debut at the GNP Seguros Stadium in Mexico City. It was the first of two consecutive nights at the venue, and it also marked the beginning of the end of the highest-grossing Latin tour of all time, according to Billboard Boxscore figures.

With all tickets sold out and an attendance of 65,000 people, as reported by the promoter Ocesa, it was one of the most massive concerts of the famous performer ever recorded in the country. The dubbed “Sol de México” is expected to repeat the feat on Sunday (Dec. 1).

The singer magnified the show he has been presenting on the tour — which began in the summer of 2023 at the Movistar Arena in Buenos Aires, Argentina — to match a venue as imposing as the GNP Seguros Stadium, with huge screens that allowed attendees to appreciate every detail of the show from any angle.

Trending on Billboard

Known for his obsession with perfection in his productions, Luis Miguel’s concert also surprised attendees with the quality of the audio, which showcased his voice potently. Visibly pleased, the performer appeared on the impressive stage elevated by a platform, impeccably dressed in his classic black suit, white shirt, black tie, black patent leather shoes and black silk socks.

It was the beginning of an unforgettable and magical night for the star and his fans, who sang along to each of Luis Miguel’s songs throughout the performance — those that have catapulted him as one of the greatest Latin stars. Saturday’s repertoire was not much different from what he has presented at other shows on the tour, with pop hits, including “Será Que No Me Amas,” “Amor, Amor, Amor,” “Suave,” “Culpable o No,” “Hasta Que Me Olvides” and “Dame,” as well as a segment dedicated to boleros with songs like “Como Yo Te Amé,” “Solamente Una Vez,” “Somos Novios” and “Todo y Nada.”

One of the most celebrated moments came with the traditional mariachi segment and the special dedication to his beloved Mexico, with the classics “Guadalajara,” “La Bikina” and “La Media Vuelta.” With a pyrotechnics show and the legendary “Cucurrucucú Paloma” — a Mexican huapango-style song written by Tomás Méndez in 1954 — Luis Miguel ended his show with a big ovation from his loyal audience.

After Sunday night’s show at the GNP Seguros Stadium, the artist has two more performances in Mexico’s capital, at the Arena Ciudad de México, on Dec. 8 and 10. Both dates are the result of the rescheduling of his Oct. 23, 24 and 28, which Luis Miguel had postponed due to unspecified health problems.

Although the singer had chosen Mexico City to close a spectacular world tour that grossed $318.2 million and sold 2.2 million tickets in its first 146 concerts, as reported in September by Billboard Boxscore, this week he surprised his fans by announcing on his Instagram Stories that the tour will instead end on Dec. 17 in Buenos Aires, at the Campo Argentino de Polo.

Charli XCX is extending Brat summer into Brat spring. The singer announced a run of five 2025 U.S. arena dates on Friday (Nov. 22). The Charli XCX – Brat 2025 – Arena tour is slated to kick off on April 22 with a gig at the Moody Center in Austin, TX , followed by a stop at the Target Center in Minneapolis, MN and an April 28 show at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL.
The quick-hit run — her first solo U.S. arena tour — will wind down with a two-fer at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on April 30 and May 1.

Fans can register for first access to tickets in the artist presale which is open how here; the artist presale will being on Tuesday (Nov. 26) at 10 a.m. local time with a general onsale beginning on Tuesday at 2 p.m. local time here. At press time no supporting acts had been announced.

Fans got buzzing about a possible large-scale tour earlier this week when billboards featuring the album’s signature lo-fi font and lime green color scheme that read “Chicago,” “Minneapolis” and “Brooklyn” in those cities; Charli used a similar scheme in October to tease her Brat remix album, Brat and It’s Completely Different But Also Still Brat.

Charli and Troy Sivan criss-crossed the North America on their joint 22-city Sweat tour in September and October, hitting venues from Detroit to Toronto, New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Nashville, Atlanta, Miami, Orlando, Dallas, Denver, Phoenix, L.A., San Diego, San Francisco and Portland before winding down in Seattle on Oct. 23.

After hosting and performing as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live last weekend the singer pulled off a surprise pop-up show in New York’s Times Square on Monday night.

The dates will come amidst a busy 2025 for the “365” singer, who is also co-executive producing the score for the A24 movie Mother Mary with Jack Antonoff, as well as producing original music for Benito Skinner’s Amazon Prime Video series Overcompensating. She is also slated to star in Daniel Goldhaber’s remake of the 1978 cult horror film Faces of Death and Greg Araki’s erotic thriller I Want Your Sex.

Post Malone appeared to let the cat out of the bag about two of his biggest 2025 tour dates. In an Instagram post announcing his most ambitious outing to date — next year’s Big Ass Stadium Tour with Jelly Roll — Malone also included a pair of shows on April 13 and 20 in Indio, […]

Two of the biggest names in country are hitting the road together next year. On Tuesday morning (Nov. 19), Post Malone announced the dates for his 2025 BIG ASS Stadium Tour, a 25-date spring/summer run that will team the “I Had Some Help” singer up with Jelly Roll for a run of baseball/football stadiums slated to kick off on April 29 at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, UT.
The Live Nation-produced North American tour, Posty’s biggest headlining outing to date, will also feature support from Sierra Ferrell on select dates. After launching in SLC, the tour will hit Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and the Alamodome in San Antonio, before moving on to Dallas, Atlanta, St. Louis, Detroit, Minneapolis, Chicago, Philadelphia, Toronto, New York, Miami, Denver, and Portland before winding down on July 1 at Oracle Park in San Francisco.

In his Instagram post announcing the tour, Malone included a poster with two other dates not featured in the official press release on April 13 and 20 in Indio, California, which coincides with the two weekends of the 2025 Coachella Festival and will not include Jelly or Ferrell; the lineup for next year’s Coachella has not yet been announced and spokespeople for Malone and Coachella had not returned a request for comment on the April dates at press time.

Both Malone and Jelly are former rappers who’ve found great success in country music, with Malone hitting No. 1 on the Billboard 200 album chart earlier this year with his feature-packed debut country album, F-1 Trillion, which has been nominated for a best country album Grammy award.

Fans in the U.S. and Canada can register for an artist presale now here, with the artist presale slated to begin on Friday (Nov. 22).

The team-up with Malone comes just weeks after Jelly Roll wrapped up his biggest tour to date, the Beautifully Broken outing, which hit arenas across the U.S. on a bill featuring Warren Zeiders and Alexandra Kay.
