The Weeknd Is Touring the World] and It’s Giving Apocalypse, But Make It Sexy

stayc main image

Intro: Abel Tesfaye Is Back Outside (And We’re Not Emotionally Ready)

First, he gave us heartbreak. Then he gave us the high notes. Now, The Weeknd is giving world tour energy and yes, it’s cinematic, chaotic, and somehow still deeply romantic. From House of Balloons to After Hours, he’s been soundtracking your worst (and best) decisions for over a decade. And now? He’s bringing that drama to a city near you.

From Toronto to Tokyo: The Starboy Is Touching Down

The tour isn’t just big, it's global. Abel is hitting everywhere from Los Angeles to Lisbon, probably with lasers, leather gloves, and a light show that looks like the inside of a fever dream. If you missed his last tour, congrats, you officially fumbled. This time, don’t.

It’s Not Just a Concert, It’s a Full-On Dystopian Love Story

The Weeknd doesn’t do it regularly. His shows are like if Black Mirror and The Notebook had a baby confusing, emotional, and kind of hot. Expect burning cityscapes, masked dancers, and enough red lights to make your Instagram stories look like a horror movie. But, you know, romantic.

New Eras, Same Toxic Excellence

Whether you’re a Day One who cried to “Wicked Games” or a newer fan who fell in love during Dawn FM, there’s something for everyone, mainly trauma and immaculate falsetto. He might even tease new music live. (And if he performs “Crew Love”? Try not to ascend.)

The Wardrobe Will Be Darker Than Your Last Relationship

Leather. Blood red suits. Sunglasses at night. Abel’s wardrobe stays in its villain arc. He somehow makes looking completely emotionally unavailable... stylish. If you see someone in the crowd dressed like a sexy vampire it’s intentional. That’s the vibe.

Call to Action: Don’t Be Left Outside the Madness

This isn’t a drill. Get the tickets. Sell your couch, do what needs to be done. Then text your group chat and make it a full-blown event. Just prepare to feel feelings you thought you’d buried.

Final Thoughts: The World’s Ending Might as Well Cry at a Weeknd Show

Between the heartbreak, the haze, and the high notes, The Weeknd’s tour is pure catharsis. If you’re gonna spiral emotionally, might as well do it in a stadium with fireworks and 60,000 other sad XOs.

You bring the tears. He’ll bring the soundtrack.
