Back on Road After Six Years
Grammy-winning rap icon Drake is making his long-awaited return to the UK and Europe with a brand-new arena tour titled $ome $pecial $hows 4 UK, and this time, he’s bringing PARTYNEXTDOOR along for the ride. Kicking off in Birmingham on July 20, the tour will hit key cities across the continent, including Manchester, Amsterdam, Paris, Milan, and Berlin, before wrapping up in Hamburg on September 23.
This marks Drake’s first European tour in six years, following his 2019 Assassination Vacation Tour. The new tour is produced by Live Nation and promises intimate-yet-iconic arena settings for fans to see one of the world’s most streamed and influential artists live.
Wireless Festival Warm-Up
Before the arena dates, Drake will perform three headlining nights at Wireless Festival in London’s Finsbury Park from July 11–13. Each night will feature a unique setlist and surprise guests, making this a one-of-a-kind kickoff. Notably, Wireless sold out within minutes — the fastest in its 20-year history.
$ome $exy $ongs 4 U Album Collab
Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR released their collaborative album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U on Valentine’s Day 2025, offering sultry, R&B-influenced vibes. Expect to hear live versions of these new tracks alongside Drake’s classic hits throughout the tour.
