Jay‑Z Expands 'Jay‑Z 30' With Stadium Shows in Paris and Los Angeles

The fall dates extend his anniversary retrospectives, with formal presale and general‑sale plans that prepare for heavy fan demand.

Overview

  • Roc Nation confirmed on Tuesday that Jay‑Z will perform at Stade de France in Paris on Sept. 10 and SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on Oct. 23 as part of the 'Jay‑Z 30' run.
  • Card presales begin June 11 with Mastercard access for Paris and Citi access for Los Angeles, and Live Nation/Ticketmaster will open the general on‑sale on June 12 at 10 a.m. local time.
  • Promoters frame the shows as anniversary retrospectives tied to the 30th anniversary of Reasonable Doubt and the 25th of The Blueprint, with reports saying setlists will emphasize those early albums.
  • Interest surged after Jay‑Z’s viral Roots Picnic freestyle in late May, which revived public attention and guest reunions and helped drive the quick expansion from the earlier Yankee Stadium dates.
  • Speculation about new music continues but remains unconfirmed, with collaborator Cash Cobain saying Jay‑Z told him he is 'absolutely not' releasing an album soon, and organizers may add dates if demand remains intense.
