Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Wizkid has officially announced the North American leg of his much-anticipated Morayo tour.
The Afrobeats sensation, known for his global influence and chart-topping hits, took to Instagram to share the exciting news with his fans. In his announcement, he revealed that the tour will feature performances across six major venues in the United States and Canada, marking his grand return to the North American stage.
With his electrifying performances and a strong catalog of hit songs, Wizkid’s Morayo tour is set to be one of the most talked-about musical events of the year.
Among the iconic venues slated for the tour, Wizkid will be taking the stage at Madison Square Garden in New York, a historic venue that has hosted some of the biggest names in the music industry. He will also make a stop at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, another legendary venue known for its electric atmosphere.
Canadian fans will also get a chance to experience the Morayo tour firsthand as Wizkid is set to perform at the Scotiabank Arena, one of the largest indoor venues in Canada. The announcement has sent waves of excitement through his fanbase, as they eagerly anticipate seeing the Afrobeats superstar deliver his signature high-energy performances on an international scale.
This latest development in Wizkid’s career follows another major milestone—his directorial debut in the music video for his single Kese (Dance). The visually stunning video showcases Wizkid’s creative vision, adding another layer to his artistry beyond his musical talents. Kese (Dance) is the second music video from his Morayo album, following Piece of My Heart, his collaboration with American R&B singer Brent Faiyaz.
The latter track has already received critical acclaim, winning the prestigious Best Contemporary Duo or Group award at the 2025 NAACP Awards. With these recent achievements, Wizkid continues to prove his versatility and dominance in the music industry.
As 2025 unfolds, Wizkid shows no signs of slowing down, with an already packed schedule that includes not just his North American dates but also a series of highly anticipated performances across Europe.
Earlier this year, he announced tour stops in France, the Netherlands, and Germany, further cementing his status as a global music icon. On May 21, he is set to headline the 12,000-capacity Velodrome Arena in Berlin, Germany.
Just two days later, he will take the stage at the Ahoy RTM Stage in Rotterdam, Netherlands, before capping off his European run with a massive performance at the 20,000-capacity Accor Arena in Paris on May 25.
The Morayo tour follows the release of Wizkid’s sixth studio album, Morayo, which dropped in November 2024. The album has been met with widespread acclaim and features an impressive lineup of guest artists, including Nigerian Afrobeats star Asake, French hitmaker Tiakola, French-Gabonese singer Anais Cardot, and American R&B sensations Jasmine Sullivan and Brent Faiyaz.
With its mix of infectious Afrobeats rhythms, smooth R&B influences, and global collaborations, Morayo has further solidified Wizkid’s reputation as one of the most innovative artists in contemporary music. The album’s success has only heightened the anticipation for his live performances, as fans are eager to witness the magic of these songs on stage.
Wizkid’s return to the road is especially significant given his history of record-breaking tours. The Nigerian superstar has previously accomplished remarkable feats, including selling out London’s O2 Arena for three consecutive nights—an achievement that few African artists have matched.
With the Morayo tour, he aims to raise the bar even higher, delivering electrifying performances that showcase his artistry, stage presence, and ability to connect with audiences worldwide.
As one of the greatest Nigerian artists of the 21st century, Wizkid continues to push boundaries, and his latest tour is poised to be yet another unforgettable chapter in his legendary career.
