The Weeknd starts a tour for this summer!

In March, The Weeknd announced a tour for his latest album “Dawn FM” featuring his other album “After Hours.” The start of the tour is right around the corner.

In 2020, the Grammy-award winner announced a tour for his biggest album “After Hours,” but it was canceled. Many fans were disappointed, but he said he wanted to make the concerts bigger and better. Since the tour for “After Hours” was canceled, he decided to perform both albums for his tour.

The Weeknd has partnered with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) by donating $1 of every sold ticket

into the XO Humanitarian Fund. The XO Humanitarian Fund is a fund that The Weeknd has created. The Weeknd is also donating $500,000 from his own money.

“The goal with this fund is to provide immediate life-saving support to people who are on the brink of starvation,” The Weeknd said. “I’m so thankful to have WFP as a partner and to further expand our reach to those who need it most.”
