The Weeknd’s ‘After Hours Til Dawn Tour’ Set for Sydney Shows
The highly anticipated ‘After Hours Til Dawn Tour’ by the renowned artist, The Weeknd, is set to arrive in Sydney, with concerts scheduled for October 22 and 23, 2024, at Accor Stadium. This comes after thrilling performances at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, accentuated by a visually stunning stage design, pyrotechnics, and fireworks.
Fans attending the shows can expect gates to open at 5:00 PM, with opening acts by Mike Dean, Chxrry22, and DJ Anna Lunoe preparing the audience for the main event. The Weeknd is scheduled to perform at 8:30 PM.
Concert-goers are advised on logistics surrounding the event. Those driving can book parking adjacent to the venue, yet are warned about potential congestion due to the stadium’s capacity of over 80,000 seats. Alternatively, Olympic Park Station, a five-minute walk from Accor Stadium, is recommended, with trains running every ten minutes from Lidcombe. Buses are also a viable option.
Attendees must adhere to specific entry rules, with only one bag allowed, no larger than 30cm x 40cm, and are reminded that the venue operates cashlessly, requiring digital payment methods. Prohibited items include professional cameras, alcohol, glass bottles, and bicycles. Smoking is restricted to designated areas only.
Fans eager to secure tickets can visit the Ticketek website for last-minute purchases, as the concerts promise unforgettable experiences. Furthermore, a special Spotify playlist curated for the shows is available, providing a preview of The Weeknd’s setlist, although it may contain surprises.
Additionally, a competition by Carlton Dry offers a chance to win one of 60 double passes to the concerts, alongside access to an exclusive pre-show party. Participants are prompted to describe, in 25 words or less, their excitement for a particular song by The Weeknd, with the competition closing on October 17, 2024.
