Kanye's First US Concert Since 2021 Sells Out
31 Mar
Summary
- Kanye West, formerly Ye, returns to US stage for first time since 2021.
- Album 'Bully' released March 28, preceding sold-out April shows.
- Artist apologized for past comments in January Wall Street Journal ad.
Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, is set to perform two concerts at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium on April 1 and April 3, 2026. These highly anticipated shows represent his first full concert performances in the United States since 2021, following his joint 'Free Larry Hoover' show with Drake.
The demand for tickets has been exceptionally high, with millions queuing on Ticketmaster for the initial show. The concert on April 1 sold out rapidly, prompting the announcement of the additional April 3 date. This return to the stage comes after Ye released his 12th studio album, 'Bully,' on March 28, 2026.
In January 2026, Ye took out a full-page advertisement in The Wall Street Journal to apologize for his previous offensive comments, specifically addressing antisemitic remarks. He attributed these statements to bipolar-1 disorder and a 2002 car crash that led to brain surgery, stating he had 'lost touch with reality.' Ticket sales for the April 1 show are concluded, but resale tickets are available. Some general sale tickets for the April 3 show remain via Ticketmaster, with resale options also present.
