General sale for The Weeknd‘s upcoming world tour finally opens today and fans are braced for a bloodbath after ‘crashing’ Ticketmaster.
The Canadian R&B star will play five dates at London’s Wembley Stadium and one at Dublin’s Croke Park in 2026, and after a series of ridiculously popular presales, the general public will finally have their chance to bag a seat.
From 12pm today (Friday September 12) fans will be able to book their tickets from Ticketmaster, SEE Tickets, Ticombo, Seat Unique, StubHub, Viagogo and Vivid Seats.
It comes after Brazilian Weeknd fans allegedly crashed the Ticketmaster website as they scrambled to secure their spot in the South American leg of the After Hours Til Dawn Tour earlier this week.
Back in the UK, members of the so-called ‘XO’ fanbase are expecting ‘chaos’ to ensue again as the general sale for his 2026 UK and Ireland concerts gets underway.

Brazilian social media users claimed Ticketmaster was struggling to deal with the demand of the Weeknd’s XO crew, with one taking to Reddit to write: “Brazil XO has crashed the website after general sales just opened.”
LADbible has contacted Ticketmaster for comment.
