Info
On August 29, 2026, The Weeknd brings his After Hours Til Dawn Tour to the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid. With After Hours and the hit “Blinding Lights” as anchors, his repertoire spans futuristic-sounding pop, R&B and a cinematic aesthetic. His songs explore contrasts of light and darkness, fame and isolation, desire and disillusionment. Live, that universe is translated into precise staging, large-scale visuals and a production that tends to every detail to support the voice, the rhythm and the nuances of his sonic narrative.
Appearing as a guest on this Madrid date, Playboi Carti provides the rap dimension. Emerging from the Atlanta scene and associated with Awful Records and the AWGE collective, he forged a minimalist style based on ad-libs, loops and a rhythmic pulse that takes precedence over classic storytelling. The mixtape Playboi Carti (2017) and Die Lit (2018) consolidated that language; Whole Lotta Red (2020) turned toward a rougher, darker trap, with punk imagery and the so-called “baby voice” over abrasive beats. On stage, his energy functions as a counterpoint to The Weeknd’s melodic and electronic architecture, proposing a convergence of two ways of approaching pop and hip‑hop within the same Madrid stadium.
