The North American tour, presented by AEG Live, will support Kanye’s YEEZUS, the most critically acclaimed new album of 2013 and the 6^th consecutive #1 album of his storied career.  West – a legendary live performer - combines state-of-the-art staging, production, and lighting design with his unmatched aesthetic, visionary creative mind, and an increasingly impressive catalogue of hits spanning his decade-long career. To date, Kanye West has sold over 21 Million albums and over 66 Million digital tracks worldwide.

The seven week tour of the U.S. and Canada will open October 19th at the KeyArena in Seattle, and conclude on December 7th at the Toyota Center in Houston.  

Joining Kanye in exclusive support on THE YEEZUS TOUR will be Top Dawg Entertainment's own Kendrick Lamar, who has emerged as one of the-brightest young talents in hip-hop today. Lamar’s debut album good kid, m.A.A.d city, released in October of last year, was recently certified platinum by the RIAA.

THE YEEZUS TOUR is Kanye West’s first major itinerary since his WATCH THE THRONE tour with JAY Z in 2011 - the highest grossing tour in hip-hop history – and his first solo tour since 2008’s critically acclaimed GLOW IN THE DARK tour.

West now readies his powerful, innovative live performance for his first major solo tour in 5 years.
