The Weeknd adds Barcelona date to global stadium tour

The Weeknd will return to Barcelona on September 1, 2026 as part of his 'After Hours Til Dawn' world tour.

The Canadian singer-songwriter and producer will perform at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium in a concert announced on Thursday after 150,000 tickets were sold for his three shows in Madrid.

The Barcelona concert will be the penultimate stop of the tour, which will end in Lisbon, Portugal on September 5.

Presale will be open via Live Nation-Santander Smusic on October 14 at 12 noon and via Live Nation on October 16 at 12 noon.

General tickets will go on sale on Friday, October 17 at 12 noon via LiveNation.es, Ticketmaster, and El Corte Inglés.

US rapper Playboi Carti will join The Weeknd across all European dates.

The After Hours Til Dawn tour celebrates The Weeknd's last three albums – After Hours (2020), Dawn FM (2022), and Hurry Up Tomorrow (2025).

Global phenomenon

Recognised by the Guinness World Records as the "Most Popular Artist in the World" (2023), The Weeknd remains one of Spotify's most streamed artists with over 111 million monthly listeners.

His track Blinding Lights holds the title of Billboard Hot 100's all-time number one song. 

The Weeknd previously thrilled his Catalan fans in July 2023 with a long-waited concert at the Olympic Stadium – also part of the After Hours til Dawn tour – which had been postponed due to the pandemic.
