Starboy: Legend of the Fall 2017 World Tour with special guests Gucci Mane and Nav
Grammy Award®-winning and multi-platinum selling music artist The Weeknd has announced a second leg to his critically acclaimed “Starboy: Legend of the Fall 2017 World Tour”, featuring a stop at Little Caesars Arena on Wednesday, November 1 at 7:30 p.m. Phase Two will kick off in September with Gucci Mane and Nav as special guests for all US dates.
Phase One of the tour kicked off in February in Stockholm, Sweden and wrapped in June in Cincinnati, Ohio. Variety named The Weeknd “a bonafide pop star and an undeniable influence on his contemporaries,” while British GQ hailed, “this was without-doubt one of the best shows we've seen from a mega star in a seriously long time.” The Weeknd released his fourth full length studio album, Starboy, on November 25, 2016 through XO/Republic Records to rave reviews. The Starboy album has since been streamed over 5 million times and certified 2x-platinum, while the title track “Starboy” is now 5x-platinum.
