Kendrick Lamar has announced a joint tour with SZA, which will take place across the UK and Europe later this year.
Announced today (February 10), the new run of stadium dates come just hours after the rapper took to the stage as the performer for the massive Super Bowl Halftime show, and was joined by SZA for two tracks.
Dubbed the ‘Grand National Tour’, the upcoming shows arrive on the heels of their North American tour, which will span between April and June. New international dates commence with an opening night at the RheinEnergieSTADION in Cologne on July 2.
From there, another show is planned for the Deutsche Bank Park venue in Frankfurt on July 4 before the two head over to the UK for the first two of their shows here. These include a stop at Hampden Park in Glasgow and a show at Villa Park in Birmingham on July 8 and 10.
From there, shows are lined up for Amsterdam and Paris, before K.Dot and SZA head back to the UK for two more UK shows. These feature a slot at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on July 19 and a stop at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on July 22.
The remainder of the tour includes shows in Lisbon, Barcelona, Rome and Warsaw, before wrapping up in Stockholm on August 9.
Tickets go on sale this Friday (February 14) at 9am local time, and pre-sale options begin on Wednesday (12). Visit here to buy tickets and find a new list of tour dates below.

As well as arriving on the heels of Lamar’s slot at the Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show – which was expected to draw more than 120million viewers – the announcement also arrives as the rapper won five awards at the Grammys 2025 just days earlier. These included Record Of The Year and Song Of The Year for his Drake diss song ‘Not Like Us’.
The song is widely considered the most successful of the Drake/Kendrick feud, became Lamar’s fourth Number One single and saw him smash numerous streaming records.
It also arrives following the surprise-release of his latest album, ‘GNX’, last November, which scored a glowing five-star review from NME.
For SZA, the dates come following her huge headline slot at Glastonbury 2024, and on the heels of her releasing ‘Lana’ – a deluxe version of her 2022 LP ‘SOS’, which arrived in December after almost a year of speculation about its release.
The news also comes as her hit new comedy, One Of Them Days, which also stars Keke Palmer, will be released in cinemas in the UK on March 7, following a positive reception upon its release in the States.
