Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR Announce ‘$ome $pecial $hows 4 U.K.’ Tour — First Europe Dates Since 2019

After a six-year hiatus from European stages, Drake is officially returning with a bang. Teaming up with longtime collaborator PARTYNEXTDOOR, the Canadian superstar has announced a new tour across the UK and Europe, titled $ome $pecial $hows 4 U.K., kicking off this July.

Drake was already slated to headline all three nights of Wireless Festival in London (July 11–13), but fans were in for a double treat today with news of additional arena shows in Birmingham and Manchester, followed by a full-fledged tour across Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, Milan, and more. The tour wraps up in Hamburg, Germany, on September 23.

These will be Drake’s first live shows in the region since 2019, when he last toured Europe during his Assassination Vacation Tour.

Tour Highlights & Ticket Info

Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR will play back-to-back shows in Birmingham’s Utilita Arena (July 20, 21), Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena (July 25, 26). Followed by performances as part of the Europe tour in the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Italy, and France.

Tickets go on presale on June 4, with the general sale starting on June 6 via Drake’s official website.

The announcement comes on the heels of their collaborative album, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, which recently debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and No. 3 on the UK Albums Chart. The record marks Drake’s 14th Billboard chart-topper and gives PARTYNEXTDOOR his first-ever No. 1 album—a milestone for the OVO Sound team.

Fans React: A Long-Awaited Return

Social media exploded after the announcement, with UK fans rejoicing at the long-overdue return. Drake’s last UK tour was widely praised for its production, visuals, and surprise guests—expectations are sky-high for this one.

PARTYNEXTDOOR, who has maintained a cult following thanks to hits like “Come and See Me” and his frequent work with Drake, will share the stage throughout the tour, making it a rare and high-impact pairing for R&B and hip-hop lovers.
