Travis Scott Announces 2023 Tour – His 1st Since the Deadly Astroworld Tragedy

usmagazine.com:

Travis Scott is hitting the road for the first time since the 2021 Astroworld tragedy that left 10  attendees dead.  “UTOPIA TOUR SOON US AND EURO DATES SOON TO BE ANNOUNCE I MISS THE ROAD I MISSS YALLLL,” Scott, 32, wrote via Instagram on Tuesday, August 8, alongside a poster that revealed the tour will be named the Utopia Presents Circus.

While the exact show dates have yet to be announced, the rapper plans to perform his Utopia album — which dropped last month — in cities around North America including Boston, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Vancouver and more, according to Pitchfork.

The outlet cited Chicago’s United Center on Monday, September 25, as the first performance date, with the tour wrapping up on Monday, November 27, at Miami’s Kaseya Center. (Tour dates were initially announced by Live Nation on Tuesday but the posts have since been deleted.) News of the upcoming tour comes one day after his Monday, August 7, performance in Rome,  where Scott performed songs from Utopia for the first time and brought out Kanye West for a performance of his hits “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” and “Praise God.” Scott also paid tribute to West, 46, saying, “There is no Utopia without Kanye West.

There is no Travis Scott without Kanye West. There is no Rome without Kanye West.”  Scott has performed at festivals and one-off concerts over the past few years, but the Utopia Presents Circus Tour will mark his first major run of U.S.
