The Weeknd has officially entered the billion-dollar echelon. His blockbuster After Hours Til Dawn Tour has surpassed the extraordinary $1 billion mark in total revenue, cementing its place as the highest-grossing tour by a male solo artist in history.
The achievement comes on the heels of the announcement of his 2026 international tour dates, which pushed total ticket sales beyond 7.5 million across 153 shows.
Launched in 2022, the global trek has covered North America (twice), Europe, the UK, Latin America, and Australia. The 35-year-old superstar’s 2025 stadium run alone delivered over 40 sold-out concerts, breaking venue records across the U.S. and Canada.
The Weeknd also became the highest-grossing Black male artist in the history of numerous major venues, including those in New York, Denver, Santa Clara, Seattle, Edmonton, Montreal, Orlando, Arlington, and Houston.
At Toronto’s Rogers Centre, he set a new benchmark with six shows—the most performances by a male solo act on a single tour at the stadium. In Los Angeles, he achieved a similar feat at SoFi Stadium. In Texas, he outpaced every other artist in ticket sales for the year.
The tour’s success extends beyond commercial triumph. Over $8.5 million has already been donated to the XO Humanitarian Fund and Global Citizen, with additional proceeds from the 2026 leg designated to support the World Food Programme.
The tour shows no sign of slowing down. The next stretch begins April 20, 2026, at Estadio GNP Seguro in Mexico City, with major stops planned in Brazil, Paris, Amsterdam, Milan, London, Madrid, and more.
Produced by Live Nation and sponsored by Nespresso, After Hours Til Dawn continues to solidify The Weeknd’s standing as a dominant force in global touring — and he’s far from finished.
