The Weeknd’s “After Hours Til Dawn” stadium tour sets a new benchmark for the highest-grossing tour by a male artist. Sources say the tour ends with a final performance in Kuala Lumpur, and the closing gross surpasses $1.3 billion.
Reporting also places the achievement in the context of major past touring records, including Elton John’s prior top mark. Coverage describes the tour as a long-running, multi-year global run, spanning many shows and cities across numerous countries and continents. Several outlets also highlight the tour’s broader footprint and ticketing scale, along with a reported contribution figure tied to philanthropic activity.
While all accounts align on the record-setting outcome, they differ in the specific details they include—such as exact tour duration, the number of performances and ticket sales, and the emphasis placed on which figures demonstrate the size of the tour. Overall, the coverage frames the story primarily as a milestone in commercial touring history.
