Kanye West is bringing his music to you in person.
For the first time in three years, the Grammy winner is getting back on the road in honor of his seventh studio album, The Life of Pablo. The concerts will kick off in Indianapolis on August 25 and run through North America, covering major cities like Boston, Atlanta, Miami and New York City, before finishing in Las Vegas on October 29, as announced by TIDAL.
"You know my tour game is strong," he told Steve Harvey while calling into his radio show in May. "My tour game is unprecedented."
For anyone who likes the sound of that, tickets will go on sale for American Express cardholders first on Tuesday at 10 a.m. through June 17 at 10 p.m. TIDAL members will be able to buy tickets during a resale on June 16 at 10 a.m. local time. Sales will open to the general public on June 18 on Live Nation's website.
His previous tour, The Yeezus Tour, ultimately became the second highest grossing leg of a tour in its year with over $25 million earned, losing the top spot to Paul McCartney's Out There tour.
