Kanye West – 21-time Grammy Award®-winner and 52-time Grammy® nominee – brings “The Yeezus Tour” with Kendrick Lamar to The Palace of Auburn Hills, Dec. 19 at 7 p.m.

The November 10 Kanye West show at The Palace of Auburn Hills has been postponed. The show has been rescheduled to occur on December 19.

Fans should hold onto their tickets, as tickets for the November 10 show will be honored on December 19.

Tickets at $89.50, $59.50 and $39.50 reserved are on sale now at Palacenet.com, The Palace Ticket Store and all Ticketmaster locations, including The Locker Room Store at Great Lakes Crossing. Tickets may be also charged by phone to American Express, Discover, Visa and MasterCard by calling 800.745.3000.

The seven week, 23-city North American tour presented by AEG Live - in support of his gold album Yeezus, the most critically acclaimed new album of 2013 and the sixth consecutive #1 album of his storied career. West – a legendary live performer - combines state-of-the-art staging, production, and lighting design with his unmatched aesthetic, visionary creative mind, and an increasingly impressive catalogue of hits spanning his decade-long career. To date, West has sold over 30 million albums and over 78 million digital tracks worldwide.

Joining West in exclusive support on “The Yeezus Tour” will be Top Dawg Entertainment’s own Kendrick Lamar, who has emerged as one of the-brightest young talents in hip-hop today. Lamar’s debut album good kid, m.A.A.d city, released last October, was recently certified platinum by the RIAA.

“The Yeezus Tour” is West’s first major itinerary since his “Watch The Throne” tour with Jay Z in 2011 - the highest grossing tour in hip-hop history – and his first solo tour since 2008’s critically acclaimed “Glow In The Dark” tour. Recently, the Washington Post hailed West as “a visionary who’s managed to tweak the serial rhythms that dictate so much of our pop culture diet. He doesn’t do cliffhangers. He jumps off…We gasp, gawk and wonder, ‘Where will he land?’”

West’s recent effort Yeezus has been hailed by critics as the album of the year; The New York Times raved “the album is one long, efficient, inventive kick in the head,” while the Daily News agreed that YEEZUS was “punk in attitude, genius in execution.” Rolling Stone argued the album was “a brilliant, obsessive-compulsive career auto-correct…This isn’t just a way to stay ahead of the competition; it’s a way to stay ahead of himself.” The New Yorker echoed the sentiment, proclaiming YEEZUS as “technically breathtaking…Twenty years from now, West’s previous records will remain important, but a new generation may first gravitate to the lean vibrancy of this one.” USA Today weighed in with “…a polarizing, multi-layered body of work that probably will be debated all summer. Who does that besides Kanye West?” Entertainment Weekly summed things up with “Kanye West has gone rogue again. Did you expect anything less? The job of an innovator, of course, is to keep innovating… …he pushes the envelope aesthetically.”

West again pushed the envelope at the 30th anniversary 2013 MTV VMAs, with his visually stunning, silhouetted performance of “Blood On The Leaves,” from Yeezus. The performance made VMA history, marking West’s seventh showcase at the awards spectacular, tying him with Madonna as the two artists with the most number of VMA performances. West has delivered some of the most visually stunning and memorable - and controversial - performances in the annals of the MTV VMAs.

West now readies his powerful, innovative live performance for his first major solo tour in five years.

Kanye West Cancels More Dates On His ‘Yeezus Tour’

Kanye West’s ‘Yeezus Tour’ has been forced to cancel 6 separate dates on the tour including Denver, Vancouver, Columbus, Montreal, Minneapolis and St. Louis. Officially it has been announced that they have been cancelled due to ‘routing logistics,’ but as you can see from the video it looks like routing logistics includes a truck getting into a minor accident and ruining a bunch of equipment. The Chicago, Toronto, and Detroit dates have also had to be rescheduled.

Kanye West Announces ‘Yeezus’ Tour

By Erin Coulehan

Erin Coulehan

Kanye West is taking Yeezus on the road this fall with a seven-week North American tour simply dubbed “The Yeezus Tour.” The run kicks off in Seattle starting October 19th and marks West’s first major return to the road since 2011’s Watch the Throne tour with Jay Z. Kendrick Lamar will support most dates.

Reader’s Poll: The 10 Best Kanye West Songs

“The Yeezus Tour” will mark the first time fans get to hear a bulk of the rapper’s critically acclaimed material in a live setting, but that’s not to say he hasn’t been prepping for the moment. West made headlines earlier this week for performing last weekend in Kazakhstan at a wedding of the Kazakhstan president’s grandson. He appeared at the MTV VMA Awards last month and delivered a hallowed  performance of “Blood on the Leaves”  and in May, performed “Black Skinhead” and “New Slaves” on the season finale of Saturday Night Live . 

Tickets go on sale on September 13th.

He has rescheduled the dates for Chicago, Toronto and Detroit, but due to “routing logistics” the shows in Vancouver, Denver, Columbus, Montreal, Minneapolis and St. Louis have been canceled, according to Island Def Jam.

The record label released a statement last week detailing the accident, saying that the truck was on its way to Vancouver when the gear was wrecked beyond repair. “This gear is central to the staging of The Yeezus Tour, and central to the creative vision put forth by Kanye West and his design team at DONDA,” the statement reads. “Kanye West will not compromise on bringing the show, as it was originally envisioned and designed, to his fans.”

$25 tickets, stadium spectaculars highlight 2024 concert season in metro Detroit

The days are getting longer. The temperatures are getting warmer. And the nights are about to get a lot louder.

For millions of music fans across metro Detroit and Michigan, summertime spells prime concert season, and there’s another bonanza of stuff on the way for 2024.

The summer schedule will feature acts from across the spectrum — rock, country, hip-hop, pop, R&B, electronic music and more — as part of the humming array of live music at big venues, small clubs, major festivals and community events.

At Pine Knob Music Theatre, the state’s leading summer music hot spot, the roasted-almond stands and drink machines have already revved up for a season that will feature nearly 50 concert nights.

On Thursday, the Clarkston amphitheater — which traditionally has ranked among the most-attended summer venues in the U.S. — notched the earliest start in its half-century history with a rock bill featuring the bands Primus, Puscifer and A Perfect Circle.

The Pine Knob action will resume May 22 with Neil Young, part of a five-month season scheduled to wrap up Sept. 28 with WRIF-FM’s Riff Fest, headlined by the veteran hard rock band Godsmack.

The 2024 season doesn’t wield quite the firepower that ruled in 2023, when Detroit’s summer calendar was loaded with mega draws such as Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Morgan Wallen, Drake and Ed Sheeran. Ford Field, the region’s largest venue, hosted nine shows and more than half a million concertgoers for the busiest stretch of music in the stadium’s 22-year history.

Indeed, last year was the biggest ever for the North American concert business, as the live-events industry continued to revel in a post-pandemic rebound: The top 100 tours alone generated $6.63 billion in grosses, according to data collected by the trade magazine Pollstar, with at least $1 billion of that coming from Swift’s Eras Tour.

This summer is teeming with hot shows, and here we break out some highlights for what's coming through October. Note that these bullet points — along with the assorted venue schedules we're providing at freep.com — are just a taste: There's plenty more notable and compelling stuff ahead at spaces big and small across southeast Michigan.

Concerts galore: Long list of artists coming to metro Detroit venues this summer

$25 concert tickets

The 10th edition of Live Nation’s Concert Week promotion will start Wednesday and run through May 14, with more than 170 Michigan shows offering $25 seats. Dates include shows at Comerica Park, Little Caesars Arena, Pine Knob and other metro Detroit amphitheaters, along with theaters and clubs across the state. Details: livenation.com/concertweek

Promoter AEG Presents is offering its own $25 tickets , on sale Tuesday through May 15, for shows at the Masonic Temple Theatre and Royal Oak Music Theatre, including Sum 41 (Sept. 14), Lyle Lovett (July 23) and Daryl Hall’s coheadlining visit with Elvis Costello (July 8).

For both promotional events, the discounted tickets are billed as "all-in" — meaning $25 flat, with no service fees or other charges.

Stadium spectaculars

Ford Field will follow its record-setting concert year with a trifecta of country nights, starting with Zach Bryan on June 20. It's part of a fast, remarkable rise for the Oklahoma artist and U.S. Navy veteran, whose only Detroit show until now was a Majestic Theatre gig in 2021.

He'll be followed at the downtown stadium by George Strait (July 13) and Kenny Chesney with the Zac Brown Band (Aug. 10).

For Chesney, this will be the 12th headlining performance in the Lions’ den, the most for any artist since the stadium's 2002 opening. His August visit with Zac Brown will feature Detroit’s Uncle Kracker in the opening slot.

At Comerica Park, there are two shows on the docket: Def Leppard and Journey will serve up rock hits July 18, while Green Day will bring its Savior Tour with guests Smashing Pumpkins and Rancid on Sept. 4.

Welcome back

The summer schedule includes a handful of folks we haven’t seen in a while, including the reunited rock band Creed, which will play Pine Knob on July 31 before returning Nov. 20 for a night at LCA. Those will be the first Creed shows here in 12 years for Scott Stapp, Mark Tremonti and company.

Smooth-singing George Strait, a pioneer of country music stadium concerts, will make his first Michigan appearance since his avowed retirement tour in 2014. Strait is now firmly back in the saddle and headed to Ford Field on July 13 with Chris Stapleton and Little Big Town in support.

Hip-hop veteran and freshly minted Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Missy Elliott, meanwhile, will play the first Detroit headlining show of her career when she hits LCA on Aug. 15 with Busta Rhymes and Ciara. Her last major Motor City performance came as part of Eminem's Ford Field stand in 2003.

Neil Young has been no stranger to Michigan venues in recent years, but his May 22 Pine Knob visit will be the first with his band Crazy Horse since 2004.

Festival feats

The Movement festival will hold down its traditional Memorial Day weekend spot on Detroit’s riverfront as the much-loved techno event returns to Hart Plaza, May 25-27. Performers on six stages will include headliners Fatboy Slim, Richie Hawtin and Solomun, part a lineup of international acts and Detroit veterans — including hometown musical pioneer Kevin Saunderson in a set with actor-DJ Idris Elba.

On Michigan’s west side, Electric Forest will kick into action June 20-23, presenting another sprawling lineup of electronic artists and jam bands, with headliners to include Pretty Lights, String Cheese Incident, Disco Biscuits, Charlotte de Witte and more.

Faster Horses, July 19-21 at Michigan International Speedway, will reassert its status as one of the biggest country music events in the U.S., this time with a country-rock crossover bill led by Hardy, Jelly Roll and Lainey Wilson.

Concert of Colors, set for Midtown Detroit, July 15-21, will unveil full details this week, including the fest's artist lineup, an expanded venue list and a new series of neighborhood events happening throughout the summer.

For Labor Day weekend, a pair of local traditions will return: The Detroit Jazz Festival will take over downtown with a four-day lineup led by drummer great Brian Blade, the 2024 artist-in-residence. Arts, Beats & Eats will be back in Royal Oak for its 27th installment, with performers to be announced later this summer.

And the latest edition of Willie Nelson’s Outlaw Music Festival, boasting a heavyweight lineup that includes Bob Dylan and John Mellencamp, will make its way to Pine Knob Sept. 15.

Big crop of country

Country music has wrangled an increasingly significant role on the summer touring circuit, and that will play out this season in amphitheaters such as Pine Knob, where highlights include the top-notch Tyler Childers and a doubleheader from Luke Bryan as part of the WYCD Hoedown (June 28-29).

Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre in Sterling Heights is brimming with country offerings, including Parker McCollum (June 8), Billy Currington (June 14) and Brothers Osborne (June 15), along with several acts of the outlaw variety: Whiskey Myers (July 6), Jamey Johnson (July 18) and Cody Jinks (Aug. 17).

Top of the pops

Irish singer-songwriter Hozier, who broke big with “Take Me to Church" in 2013 and just topped charts across the world with “Too Sweet,” will headline Pine Knob on May 31. Other biggies at the amphitheater include Maroon 5 (June 21), Janet Jackson (July 2), Imagine Dragons (Aug. 12) and Glass Animals (Aug. 24).

LCA will also welcome brotherly trio AJR on June 30 and Jennifer Lopez on July 31. Billie Eilish, fresh off another round of Grammy and Oscar wins, will arrive Oct. 7 for the second Detroit arena performance of her career, while Pink will serve up a twofer there Oct. 14-15.

Meghan Trainor, playing metro Detroit for the first time in eight years, will wrap up Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre's season when she performs Sept. 30.

R&B treasure trove

The Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre will fill Detroit’s riverfront with soulful sounds and smooth jazz, kicking off its season June 5 with Lalah Hathaway and a summer of Motor City favorites including the Isley Brothers (June 16), Kem (Aug. 2) and Sheila E (Aug. 14). More shows at the Aretha will be announced in coming weeks.

Following his big comeback moment at the Super Bowl halftime show, Usher is headed to Little Caesars Arena for a Sept. 12-13 doubleheader on his Past Present Future hits tour.

Also at LCA, Jhené Aiko will bring her Magic Hour Tour on June 19, Xscape and SWV will summon ’90s energy Aug. 9, and Maxwell will serenade audiences Oct. 11.

A Latin phenomenon

Last month, Puerto Rican star Bad Bunny notched a milestone show at a sold-out Little Caesars Arena, drawing 16,000-plus for a night of all-Spanish-language pop music. There's some broader context to that Detroit breakthrough: The Recording Industry Association of America, which tracks streaming stats and album sales, recently reported that Latin music revenues in the U.S. hit $1.4 billion last year, up 16% from 2022.

Now, less than a year after his own local sellout at Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre, Mexican singer Peso Pluma is poised to headline LCA on June 1 as Latin music’s growth accelerates in Detroit. Following the summer concert season, Colombia's Shakira will play the same downtown arena Dec. 15 as part of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour.

Homegrown hot nights

Beyond the array of local talent you’ll find nightly across metro Detroit’s clubs and bars, there are some notable homecoming performances in store: Gladwin-bred rapper NF will play the biggest Michigan show of his career with a May 14 visit to LCA, while Detroit metalcore quintet I Prevail is set for a July 13 headlining spot at Pine Knob.

Motown mainstay Kem will light up the Aretha amphitheater on Aug. 2, and there’s an exciting new jazz project from some well-pedigreed local veterans: Don Was, Dave McMurray and Luis Resto will make their Motor City debut as the Pan-Detroit Ensemble on May 24 at Orchestra Hall.

A swan song

There’s always an end of the road, and this summer’s most notable goodbye will come from Jeff Lynne’s ELO, whose Over and Out Tour plays LCA on Oct. 9, putting a bow on a 54-year run for the adventurous pop-rock project once known as Electric Light Orchestra.
