Last month, Drake’s tour designers let slip that the Canadian rapper/crooner would be heading back Down Under in the near future – and sure enough, here is the confirmation. The OVO star has just announced his dates for November 2017, playing multiple shows in Sydney and Melbourne, as well as a single show in Brisbane for the Boy Meets World tour. All shows are All Ages.
This will mark Drake’s second tour of Australia, after he successfully dominated the country at Future Music Festival and his own run of headline shows with 2Chainz in 2015. Anybody who attended those shows knows that his extensive set is something to be marvelled – he ran through stadium-sized rap bangers, harmonised us with down-tempo ballads and even rode on a fucking trapeze! Powerful.
See all the dates and details below, and prepare for this to sell out very, very quickly. Let’s pray that he plays ‘Diamonds Dancing’ and ‘Passionfruit’ at least seven times:
