The Weeknd’s show in Brazil will be broadcast exclusively on YouTube

YouTube will exclusively broadcast the one-off show The Weeknd in Brazil this year, on September 7th, at MorumBIS Stadium. After performing a sold-out global tour for the past two years, the musician is expected to perform hits and give a glimpse of his next project at the performance in São Paulo.

I’m so excited to announce that my São Paulo show will be livestreamed, so everyone around the world can be a part of this special night. I wish I could go to every city in the world, so moments like this give us the chance to connect in real time and share this energy wherever you are. – The Weeknd

The Weeknd will donate 10% of net proceeds from all merchandise sales at the event and online to BrazilFundation’s Brazilian Soul Fund. These funds will directly support communities in Brazil affected by natural disasters and economic hardship, with a focus on helping the most vulnerable families in the south of the country recover and rebuild their lives following the recent floods that affected the region.

On YouTube, the artist is one of the most-watched artists of 2024 so far and has garnered over six billion views on his content in the last 12 months.
