Australian fans of The Weeknd are thrilled as the superstar has announced new dates for his After Hours Til Dawn Tour. Abel Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd, had to cancel his sold-out Australian shows in April, leaving fans disappointed. However, after months of anticipation, he’s confirmed his return to Australia for the first time since 2017.
In a statement, The Weeknd expressed his commitment to performing Down Under:
“I feel a strong pull to perform in Australia before moving on to the next chapter and want to make sure you all know I hadn’t forgotten about you. When I return now, it will be the right time, and I promise it will be such a special experience. I can’t wait to see you all!” pic.twitter.com/1lrultszyS
