The Weeknd is looking to take The Land of the Holy Cross by storm this fall.

The concert, produced by Live Nation, will be held at the largest privately owned stadium in Brazil, Estaìdio MorumBIS, where The Weeknd will be performing with a one-of-a-kind production, according to a release.

This show is The Weeknd's first since the star wrapped up his 2022-2023 After Hours Til Dawn Tour, which had a long run across North America, Europe, the U.K. and Latin America. The tour included over 60 sold-out stadium shows with over three million attendees.
