Grand National Tour
Updated: 12/11/2025, 1:44:49 PM Wikipedia source
The Grand National Tour is a concert tour by American rapper Kendrick Lamar, in support of his sixth studio album, GNX. It consists of 47 shows, spanning Europe, North America, Australia, and South America. The tour commenced on April 19, 2025, in Minneapolis, United States, and is scheduled to conclude on December 11, in Sydney, Australia. The North American and European shows were co-headlined by American singer-songwriter SZA in support of Lana (2024), the deluxe reissue of her second studio album SOS (2022). The Grand National Tour is the first all-stadium tour for SZA and Lamar. Lamar's sets include segments of Anita Baker songs, while SZA's contain segments of other artists' songs. The tour's opening acts are American DJ Mustard for the first stretch of shows in the United States, Canada, and Europe; Argentinian duo Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso for the Latin American shows; and American rappers Doechii and Schoolboy Q for alternate Australian shows. AZ Chike, Baby Keem, Doja Cat, Justin Bieber, Kaytranada, Lizzo, and Playboi Carti have appeared as guest performers.
Many reviewers praised the Grand National Tour for the stage design, Lamar and SZA's showmanship, and their synergy as a duo. Reviewers called the shows a visual spectacle and said that, despite the creative differences between the pair, they were able to show how well they fit together. Some criticism was aimed at the nine-act structure, with reviewers saying that it made the concerts feel disjointed. Following the tour's start, SOS and GNX charted at number one and two on the Billboard 200, respectively. The Seattle show broke the record for the highest-grossing hip hop concert, accumulating $14.811 million from 60,941 tickets sold.
