Following the release of 2020s ‘After Hours’, The Weeknd has unveiled a string of collaborative tracks including a ‘Save Your Tears’ remix with Ariana Grande, ‘You Right’ with Doja Cat, ‘Tears in the Club’ with FKA Twigs, ‘La Fama’ with Rosalía, ‘One Right Now’ with Post Malone’ and posthumous Aaliyah single ‘Poison’.

Last year the artist, real name Abel Tesfaye, became the first Canadian to headline the legendary Super Bowl halftime show. Appearing in the visual aesthetics of ‘After Hours’ he performed an impressive career-spanning set, and even lined-up a greatest hits album to coincide with the show.

This summer the singer is set to embark on his highly-anticipated ‘After Hours til Dawn’ stadium tour – dates and venue details are still to be announced.
