Published

on

Seven-time GRAMMY® nominated R&B superstar GIVĒON has formally announced his brand-new headlining tour, ‘Dear Beloved, The Tour’, on the heels of the release of his sophomore studio album, BELOVED, available now. BELOVED, released on July 11, marks the second of GIVĒON’s albums to debut within the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 (#8), and his first solo studio album to achieve the feat (When It’s All Said and Done… Take Time). The 14-track set currently sits at #1 on Current R&B Albums Chart, as well as #1 on Apple Music’s R&B Chart and #3 on Overall.

The tour, produced by Live Nation, will kick off in Seattle, WA on Wed, Oct. 1 and stretch until Nov. 6 at New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden. Along the way, Dear Beloved will make stops in GIVĒON’s hometown of Los Angeles at The Greek Theatre, and include nights in Chicago, Las Vegas, Detroit, and Washington D.C. The trek will also make two stops in Canada: Oct. 2 in Vancouver and Oct. 27 in Toronto. Special guests Free Nationals, Charlotte Day Wilson, and Sasha Keable will join GIVĒON on select dates throughout the tour.

TICKETS: Tickets will be available starting with an artist presale beginning today at 11am PT. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning Friday, July 25 at 10am local at giveonofficial.com.

VIP: The tour will also offer a variety of different VIP packages and experiences for fans to take their concert experience to the next level. Packages vary but include premium tickets, exclusive VIP only gift item, early entry into the venue, pre-show merch shopping & more. VIP package contents vary based on the offer selected. For more information, visit vipnation.com.

Dear Beloved, The Tour will be GIVĒON’s third headlining tour and mark the end of a three-year hiatus from touring, following his breakout tour in 2021, Timeless Tour, and 2022’s Give or Take Tour. The singer’s return to stage mirrors his return to the booth; BELOVED marks GIVĒON’s first studio album since 2022’s Give or Take. His comeback campaign has been champagne-worthy, with a four-star review from Rolling Stone and critical acclaim from VarietyAssociated PressUPROXX, Hypebeast and more.

Though Dear Beloved doesn’t kick off until October, GIVĒON has already made international headlines with his renewed stage presence. Earlier this month, Drake brought him out as a special guest at Wireless Festival in the UK. GIVĒONfeatured on Drake’s “Chicago Freestyle” in 2021, which contributed significantly to the singer’s star turn.

“How this album is going to translate to the live show – I think it’s going to be magical because the album was made live, so it’s made to be performed live,” GIVĒON told Rolling Stone earlier this month. “It’s going to be my best tour. I want to do strings, I want to do horns, I want to do background vocals, so I feel like [I’ll have] a full eight to 10 piece [backing band], depending on how big the stages are. The album is really a movie, it’s a world, and I want the night to feel like that.”

Young Miko Announces the ‘Late Checkout Tour’

Published

YoungMiko_2026_National

GRAMMY®-nominated global artist Young Miko announces her “Late Checkout Tour.” The 31-date tour will span 11 countries, marking her most ambitious tour to date, the first time Young Miko will embark on an arena tour, and aligning with the defining moment she is experiencing in her career. Promoted by Live Nation, the tour kicks off July 3 at Roskilde Festival in Denmark, launching a European festival run before she heads to Mexico for a major stretch in September. From there, she will close out the year across key U.S. markets including Miami, Atlanta, Houston, Orlando, New York, and Los Angeles, marking her most expansive international routing to date. See full routing and ticketing information below.

The announcement arrives at a time when Young Miko has firmly established herself at the forefront of global music. Her sophomore album “Do Not Disturb” debuted at No. 3 on Spotify’s Top Albums Debut USA and No. 4 globally, while also landing on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart. Standout track “WASSUP” achieved global viral success and earned a spot on prestigious year-end lists, including Rolling Stone’s 100 Best Songs of 2025, while “Likey Likey” continues to resonate with audiences worldwide. That growing cultural impact was further recognized at the 37th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, where she was honored with Outstanding Music Artist.

Fans first got a taste of Young Miko’s arena presence last year when she joined Billie Eilish’s HIT ME HARD AND SOFT TOUR as an opening act for eight select dates in key markets including Orlando, Philadelphia, and New York. Shortly after, she made her arena headlining debut in her native Puerto Rico, announcing her first-ever headline show at the iconic Coliseo de Puerto Rico. The show sold out in just 90 minutes, leading to a second date being added, with both nights selling out. Beyond music, she has expanded her cultural impact in meaningful ways, most recently partnering with GAP for the brand’s “Sweats Like This” campaign. As the face of its first-ever Spanish-language campaign and the first openly queer Latina to star in a GAP campaign. With each milestone, Young Miko continues to shape the sound, style, and direction of a new generation, solidifying her role as one of the most influential voices in global music today.

TICKETS: Tickets will be available starting with presales beginning on Tuesday, April 7 at 10 AM local time. Additional presales will run throughout ahead of the general onsale beginning on FridayApril 10 at 10 AM local time at LiveNation.com.
