What do the cheapest tickets cost to see The Weeknd in Montreal?
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. The Weeknd has weeknight plans. On Thursday, July 24 and Friday, July 25, the four-time Grammy winner will headline at Montreal's Parc Jean Drapeau. These shows are part of the 35-year-old singer's ongoing 'After Hours 'Til Dawn Tour' in support of his 2025 album 'Hurry Up Tomorrow' with special guests Playboi Carti and Mike Dean that has crisscrossed all over North America these past few months. If you'd like to hear 'Blinding Lights,' 'Can't Feel My Face,' 'The Hills,' 'Starboy' and so many more of The Weeknd's timeless hits live in his first Montreal show since he headlined the Osheaga Festival back in 2017, last-minute tickets are available for both shows. At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for either concert was $127 USD including fees on Vivid Seats. Not bad considering how elaborate The Weeknd's live shows are. 'In a marathon 40-tune show, the 35-year-old brought nothing less than an A-game to the arena-spanning set, The Vancouver Sun wrote in a review of a recent concert. 'From its veritable [British Columbia] forest of flames, criss-crossing lasers, giant golden showpiece statue similar to the one seen in Fritz Lang's dystopian science fiction classic 'Metropolis,' the design was all drama and flash.' Can't make it to Montreal? Four 'After Hours 'Til Dawn' concerts are scheduled to take place in The Weeknd's home Toronto Rogers Centre on July 27-28 and Aug. 7-8. For more information, our team has everything you need to know and more about The Weeknd's pair of Parc Jean Drapeau concerts below. All prices listed above are subject to fluctuation.

'Moth to a Flame' The Weeknd new music On Jan. 31, The Weeknd released his sixth studio album 'Hurry Up Tomorrow,' featuring big names like Lana Del Rey, Florence and the Machine, Travis Scott, Future, Playboy Carti and more. Over 22 tracks, the gifted vocalist toys with genre jumping from 'Thriller'-like '80s synth pop, thumping EDM, open-hearted ballads, pulsing club cuts and laid-back chillwave. Somehow, he sticks the landing lending his angelic pipes — that sound like they were dipped in honey — to each sonically adventurous avenue he travels down. That's particularly true for the earworm 'Sāo Paulo,' which will likely become a party playlist staple for years to come. We're already shimmying just thinking about it. To hear for yourself, you can find the ambitious 'Hurry Up Tomorrow' here. The Weeknd special guests If it's been a minute since you've heard Playboi Carti or Mike Dean, here are their most-streamed songs on Spotify as a quick refresher.

Concert review: The Weeknd captivates Edmonton with tireless showmanship and visual spectacle
Article content At one point, during a performance of Our Time, he even approached a young girl in the crowd and allowed her to take his microphone and sing a portion of the chorus, which got a huge ovation from the crowd. Article content At the midpoint of the show, The Weeknd took a minute to acknowledge the Edmonton audience whom he had not performed for since the Starboy tour in 2017. He joked about not realizing how long it takes an Edmonton sky to darken in the summer, but he was glad to see how full the stadium was, even acknowledging the seats parallel to the stage. Article content While American cities had Playboy Carti opening the show, Edmonton was blessed with an opening performance by Mike Dean, a DJ and The Weeknd's long-time collaborator, who mixed from a podium in front of the main stage. Playboy Carti was denied entry into Canada, said promoter Live Nation. Dean's set was a tonally diverse blend of vapourware and drum and bass that included live instrumentals. Dean switched between wielding a saxophone, playing a synth keyboard and strumming an electric guitar, all while puffing on one joint after the next. Article content Article content The screen behind Dean showed a sun rising slowly, cueing the music to transition from a slow gothic synth to more mirthful chimes, digital birds chirping from synth scaffolding. Smoke plumed from his tarp-covered podium as if attempting to create a stadium-wide contact high that set the right tone for the show to come. Article content During his acknowledgment of the audience, The Weeknd said he hopes it doesn't take another 15 years to come back to Edmonton, and after such an engaging and entertaining show, I hope so too.

The Weeknd's Blockbuster Brings Him To A Milestone He's Never Seen Before
The Weeknd's Starboy hits 400 weeks on the Billboard 200 — a first for the Canadian musician on ... More Billboard's ranking of the biggest albums in the United States. WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA - MARCH 20: (EDITORS NOTE: Image was shot in black and white. Color version is available.) EXCLUSIVE COVERAGE Singer The Weeknd attends The Daily Front Row "Fashion Los Angeles Awards" 2016 at Sunset Tower Hotel on March 20, 2016 in West Hollywood, California. (Photo byfor The Daily Front Row) Starboy was a hugely important album for The Weeknd. The Canadian musician's third full-length release, which arrived a little more than a year after Beauty Behind the Madness, helped him quickly follow up on the massive global success of his breakout project. It showed he was not just a flash in the pan or the hottest new thing in music, but a certified hitmaker — someone who knew what the public wanted and was able to change things up without losing his massive audience. Nearly a decade after its release, Starboy still holds a special place in the Grammy winner's discography, and this week it reaches a notable milestone, one which the powerhouse talent has never seen before. Starboy Hits 400 Weeks on the Billboard 200 Starboy has now lived on the Billboard 200 for 400 weeks, as of this period. The full-length reaches that landmark figure this time around, as it dips two spots to No. 91. While Starboy may fall ever so slightly on the Billboard 200, consumption of the project is almost equal to last frame, as it shifted fewer than 100 additional equivalent units from the previous span. In the past tracking period, Luminate reports that The Weeknd's album moved 12,600 units in the U.S. Starboy Beats Beauty Behind the Madness and The Highlights Starboy has ranked as The Weeknd's longest-charting title on the Billboard 200 for some time. As it adds to its growing total each frame, it may remain in the lead indefinitely. Less than a year behind Starboy is Beauty Behind the Madness, which is now up to 352 frames somewhere on the tally of the most consumed albums in the U.S. Only The Highlights has also passed 200 appearances, as that compilation — which is no longer present on the roster — has racked up 211 stays throughout its lifetime. Americans are buying and streaming The Weeknd's individual projects in large enough numbers to keep them on the Billboard 200, instead of all activity being consolidated into the hits-packed set. Starboy Appears on Multiple Charts Most of The Weeknd's albums are sliding backward across the charts in America this week. Starboy, however, manages a small lift on the Top R&B Albums ranking, inching up one space to No. 8. It also holds steady at No. 21 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums tally.
