Drake has announced the expansion of his «It’s All a Blur Tour» with rapper 21 Savage, adding new cities including Toronto. The tour was delayed, pushing back shows in New Orleans, Nashville, Houston, Dallas, Miami, and Atlanta until late summer. The new cities added to the tour include Toronto, Columbus, Memphis, Denver, Austin, Milwaukee, and Charlotte. The two shows scheduled in Toronto at Scotiabank Arena are set to take place on October 5 and 7.
Canadian fans can also expect two shows in Montreal at the Bell Centre on July 14 and 15, and two more in Vancouver at Rogers Arena on August 28 and 29. While Drake has not yet confirmed the OVO Fest 2023, usually performed in the summer, fans remain hopeful.
In March, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Ticketmaster by Drake fans, who claimed that seat prices for the original run of shows were artificially inflated. Despite mixed reviews from music critics, Drake’s two album releases in 2022, «Honestly, Nevermind» and a collaborative album with 21 Savage titled «Her Loss,» performed well on the charts.
The Toronto pre-sale for the tour is set to begin on April 27 at 10 a.m. ET, with the general public sale taking place the following day at 1 p.m. ET on April 28. Fans can expect a high demand for tickets, with the added shows and postponed dates building anticipation for the tour’s start.
