The Weeknd Performs Two-Night Detroit Ford Field Stand

News summary

The Weeknd returned to Detroit's Ford Field for the first of two highly anticipated shows on May 24, 2025, fulfilling a promise made at his previous 2022 concert to perform back-to-back nights. His After Hours Til Dawn tour featured an expansive, cross-shaped stage with multiple performance areas, elaborate visual effects, and a setlist blending hits from his career with 11 songs from his latest album, "Hurry Up Tomorrow." The show lasted over two hours and included collaborations with Playboi Carti, impressive lighting, pyrotechnics, and choreographed performances that created a cinematic, cyberpunk dystopian atmosphere. Despite some visibility challenges due to the large stage layout, the concert captivated approximately 45,000 fans, many traveling from outside Detroit and Canada. This performance marked a contrast to the mixed reception of The Weeknd's recent HBO series and film, emphasizing his continued strength and innovation as a live music performer. The event was part of a busy night in Detroit, complementing other local happenings and underscoring The Weeknd's status as a major pop culture figure.
