The Weeknd<\/strong><\/a> ended his After Hours Til Dawn Stadium Tour at TM Stadium National in Kuala Lumpur after a four-year run that grossed more than $1.3 billion<\/strong>. It is the highest-grossing tour by a male artist in history.<\/p>\n

The Kuala Lumpur finale followed 16 other sold-out stadium shows in Asia, the tour\u2019s first visit to the region. Initially announced with 11 dates, the leg grew to 17, including three shows in Bangkok, four in Hong Kong and multiple performances in every market.<\/p>\n

Since opening in July 2022, the tour played 176 shows<\/strong> across 67 cities, 30 countries and five continents. It sold more than 9 million tickets<\/strong> and is among the few tours to gross more than $1 billion.<\/p>\n

The Weeknd has donated $8.5 million<\/strong> to the XO Humanitarian Fund and Global Citizen<\/a> in support of hunger relief and children\u2019s access to education. In 2026, $3 million was raised for the United Nations World Food Programme<\/a> and Global Citizen. This year\u2019s Global Citizen contributions will support a campaign addressing barriers women and girls face in health, education and economic opportunity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Weeknd concluded his After Hours Til Dawn Stadium Tour in Kuala Lumpur after 176 shows and more than $1.3 billion in gross
