After releasing his fourth full-length album 'Starboy' in 2016, Grammy Award®-winning and multi-platinum selling music artist The Weeknd is now set to take command of the live stage this December with the Australian leg of his Starboy World Tour.
With Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena as the first stop, The Weeknd will make his way to the Brisbane Entertainment Centre where he will mesmerize fans with his smooth-sailing voice. Performances at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne and Adelaide Entertainment Centre will follow before the final show at the Perth Arena. Joining him as special guests on all dates are French Montana and Nav.
Kicking off his music career anonymously, The Weeknd first broke into the scene with the 2011 mixtape 'House of Balloons' followed by studio album 'Kiss Land' in 2013 and the widely recognized 'Beauty Behind the Madness' that earned him two Grammy Awards in 2015, an RIAA triple-platinum certification for cumulative sales of over three million, 16 RIAA certifications from tracks alone with “The Hills” (7x-platinum), “Can’t Feel My Face” (5x-platinum), “Often” (2x-platinum), “In The Night” (platinum) and “Acquainted” (platinum). “Earned It (Fifty Shades of Grey)” even garnered The Weeknd his first-ever Academy Award® nomination for “Best Original Song.”
'Starboy' (2x-platinum) quickly climbed up the top spot in 90 countries, sold more than one million albums across the globe and easily broke global streaming record all in less than one week.
