Drake: It's All A Blur Tour Setlist, Dates, and Tickets
During this amazing summer of live music, Drake’s It’s All a Blur Tour has been one of the hottest tickets in the country for music lovers. The tour began in early July and is going to continue through early October. That means there is plenty of time left to get your hands on Drake tickets. But where is Drake going throughout the rest of the summer and the fall? What can you expect from one of his shows? More importantly, how can you get tickets? Let’s answer all of those questions and more as we take a closer look at Drake’s It’s All a Blur Tour.
Since the Last Tour
If you didn’t already know, the It’s All A Blur Tour is a big deal. While Drake briefly toured in 2019, this is his first major tour since 2018, when he went on tour with Migos for the Aubrey & the Three Migos Tour. Since that tour, Drake has released two mixtapes and three albums while also re-releasing some material. Oddly enough, this tour emphasizes some of Drake’s older work, trying to encapsulate his entire career. However, a good chunk of the songs he’s performing on the It’s All A Blur Tour come from his recent albums, meaning he’s playing over a dozen songs on tour for the first time.
Where is the Tour Going?
The It’s All A Blur Tour started July 5 in Chicago and still has plenty of stops left in it. The tour is exclusively on the West Coast during the second half of August, including stops in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and Vancouver. In September, the tour has two shows in Las Vegas before slowly traveling east. This part of the tour includes stops in Denver, Austin, Dallas, Houston, New Orleans, Charlotte, Atlanta, and Miami. On October 5 and 7, Drake returns to his hometown of Toronto for shows at Scotiabank Arena. Those shows were originally intended to conclude the tour, but a rescheduled show in Columbus on October 9 will officially bring the It’s All A Blur Tour to its conclusion.
Who is Joining Drake on Tour?
Like many of Drake’s previous tours, the It’s All A Blur Tour is a co-headlining tour with Drake being joined by 21 Savage. The driving purpose behind the tour is to promote the collaborative album the two released in November 2022 called Her Loss. That being said, Drake is the true headliner of the tour. Nevertheless, 21 Savage has a setlist of 12 songs. The two also perform five songs together, including “Knife Talk,” “Rich Flex,” and “Jimmy Cooks.” The way the show is structured, the five songs Drake and 21 Savage perform together come at the end of the show before Drake’s encore of the song “Legend.”
The Stage Show
As you might expect from such a highly-anticipated tour, the It’s All A Blur Tour pulls out all of the stops. In addition to great music, there are holograms, including one of a young Drake, and inflatable blow-up dolls in the shape of the Grim Reaper, Peter Pan, and others. The stage show is filled with beautiful art and an amazing light show that makes it easy for Drake to keep his energy up throughout the performance. In a way, the tour is about more than just music. It’s about creating a visual experience for the audience that they’ll never forget, making the It’s All A Blur Tour a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Drake’s Setlist
As for the setlist on the It’s All A Blur Tour, it’s quite extensive. Remember that part of the purpose of the tour is to serve as a retrospective of Drake’s entire career, which is why some of his older material is highlighted more than his new stuff. Nevertheless, Drake’s setlist includes 36 songs, creating plenty of room for all of his hits, new and old. In fact, the sheer volume of songs on Drake’s setlist is a testament to just how much he’s dominated the music industry over the last decade.
The set begins with “Look What You’ve Done” and “Marvins Room.” The first half of the set also includes hits like “Headlines,” HYFR,” “Started from the Bottom,” and “Sicko Mode.” The hits keep coming with “Laugh Now Cry Later” and “God’s Plan,” along with new songs like “Wait For U” and “Fountains.” Finally, the show comes to an end with “Massive,” “Sticky,” and “Search & Rescue” all in a row. 21 Savage then takes the stage for his 12-song set before the two close out the show together.
How to Get Tickets
For the remaining dates on the It’s All A Blur Tour, there is still plenty of time to get tickets. In fact, it may actually be a good thing to still be looking for tickets. For high-demand performances like the It’s All A Blur Tour, the best deals are often found in the last few days before a performance, including the day of the show. This is when prices on the secondary market tend to come down because ticket holders who can’t attend become more desperate to sell their tickets. In other words, if you want Drake tickets, pick the show you want to attend and then be patient. By waiting until a day or two before the show, you’ll be more likely to find a great deal.
