It's going to be a Hot Girl Summer.
American rapper Megan Thee Stallion is heading to London. She will bring her Hot Girl Summer world tour to The O2 Arena on 17 July 2024.
The three-time Grammy award-winning superstar is a force to be reckoned with in the rap industry. Hailing from Houston, Texas, she rose to fame through the power of social media, where her fierce freestyling skills propelled her into the spotlight.
Her music is a potent blend of confidence, humour, and social commentary. Tracks like "Savage" with Beyonce and "WAP" with Cardi B have become anthems of female empowerment, celebrating sexuality and independence. Her lyrics don't shy away from addressing serious issues either, with songs like "Shots Fired" referencing a high-profile shooting incident with ex-boyfriend Tory Lanez.
In 2023, after a public legal battle with her record label, Megan took control of her career, becoming an independent artist. In February, her new single "Hiss" debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The track caught the attention of fellow rapper Nicki Minaj, re-igniting their beef in the wake of the alleged diss track.
The Hot Girl Summer World Tour kicks off in Minneapolis on 14 May and traverses 31 global cities, including Amsterdam, Cologne, Dublin, and Paris, before wrapping up on 27 July in Washington, DC, USA. The UK leg of the tour will see the hitmaker perform in Birmingham on 16 July and in London on 17 July.
This tour marks Megan's first headlining tour in arenas worldwide and will introduce a special Chicas Divertidas VIP section. On the US dates, Megan will be supported by Grammy-nominated artist GloRilla.
Hotties presale tickets will be available from Wednesday, 20 March 20, with the general sale beginning on Friday, 22 March.
If you love live music, SZA will perform at BST Hyde Park on 29 June, and SuperBowl sensation Usher will bring his Past Present Future tour to The O2 on 1, 2, 5, and 6 April 2025.
