Tickets for the shows will first be available on presale on Wednesday (Jun. 4) before a general sale begins on Friday (Jun. 6) on Drake's official website.
The upcoming dates will be Drake's first run of shows in the U.K. and Europe in six years since his 2019 Assassination Vacation Tour. Earlier this year, he toured throughout Australia on his Anita Max Win jaunt, though a number of dates in Sydney and Auckland, New Zealand were cancelled with short notice due 'scheduling conflicts.'
Earlier this year Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR released their collaborative album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U which hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and No. 3 on the U.K. Official Albums Chart. The LP was Drake's 14th No. 1 atop the Billboard 200 and PARTYNEXTDOOR's first chart-topper.
In May, Drake also teased the return of his OVO Fest in his hometown in Toronto, Canada. Appearing at Central Cee's show, he confirmed the star-studded event would 'be back this year.' It will be his first time hosting the event since his high-profile beef with Kendrick Lamar and his ongoing lawsuit with his label Universal Music Group.

Wu-Tang Clan's Masta Killa Explains Why You Should Go Vegan in PETA Spot: ‘There's Really No Excuse'
Masta Killa is swingin' through your town like your neighborhood Spider-Man with a message to share: Go vegan. The Wu-Tang Clan member has partnered with PETA for a new campaign to spread the word about the plant-based diet, which is close to his heart. 'Health is truly wealth. Eating righteous with the Balance of exercise is the key to the longevity of living,' the MC tells Billboard, while subtly referencing his new album, which dropped on May 30. 'PETA has always been a positive advocate for a healthy way of living and the ethical treatment of animals and I love that.' More from Billboard Joan Jett Challenges Women's Rights Activists to Protect Female Animals Too: 'We Are All Sisters' Turnstile Soundtrack New Taco Bell Commercial Featuring Tony Hawk Royel Otis Set August Release for Second Album 'Hickey' In a new video with the animal rights non-profit group, the rapper shares that he's been following a vegan diet for more than 20 years, and notes that the Clan's Mathematics and RZA also follow plant-based diets. 'You take care of your body, your body will take care of you,' Masta Killa says in the campaign video shared with Billboard. 'Your body is a living organism, right? So you're supposed it feed it life — plants, vegetables, fruits. All of those things are still living, so you're putting life into life!' 'Everywhere I go, there's a good vegan meal somewhere, and it's more healthy. There's really no excuse!' he adds. 'I think you can do it. I'm living proof that you can.' RZA has also been open about his vegan diet. The Wu-Tang Clan frontman told GQ in a 2021 that he went vegetarian in the '90s, first by giving up red meat, followed by poultry and fish. In 2000, he stopped eating dairy and eggs, and became vegan. 'I think it's important for us all to be aware of the benefits of a plant-based diet. It's actually better for the planet. I honestly think that you are what you eat. If I'm making a piece of meat, pumped up with steroids from an animal — I'm ingesting his blood. How is that good for me?' Masta Killa joins a long list of stars who have partnered with PETA to promote kindness to animals and plant-based diets. Among them are Joan Jett, Bryan Adams and Paul McCartney. The Wu-Tang Clan is currently on its Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chamber tour, celebrating the iconic hip-hop group's vast catalogue, including performances of deep cuts and tracks that had not previously been performed live. The trek kicked off June 6, and will wrap July 18 in Philadelphia.

Hollywood star Reeves in driving seat for Cadillac series
Hollywood star Keanu Reeves is set to present a series on Cadillac's journey to becoming a Formula One team (Frederick M. Brown) Hot on the heels of Brad Pitt's recently released film F1: The Movie, another Hollywood star is set to front a behind-the-scenes series on Cadillac's journey to join the F1 grid next year. Canadian screen actor Keanu Reeves, a motorsport fan, is to present a multi-episode production that will focus on the team's development of staff, cars and race team through a two-year process. Advertisement Cadillac was confirmed as the sport's 11th team for 2026 in March. Reeves, 60, presented the Emmy award-winning 2023 documentary on Ross Brawn's eponymous team's success in beating the odds to win the title in 2009. The star of Speed and The Matrix said he felt honoured and excited to tell the Cadillac story and "bring audiences into the heart of this journey and to showcase what it takes to participate in one of the most exclusive sports arenas in the world." Reeves, who has an extensive collection of motor cycles and has taken part in a professional car race, the Toyota GR Cup, in Indianapolis, is not expected to follow Pitt's example and sample the thrill of driving an F1 car. Advertisement Pitt, 61, who reached a top speed of 197 mph in a test at Austin, Texas, in June, said recently that he wanted to "go back …I want to hit 200!" McLaren boss Zak Brown, whose team supplied the car he drove, said he expected to see him return and repeat the experience. str/pi
