This week rap megastar Jay-Z just played a massive sold-out residency at New York’s Yankee Stadium – but the Americans aren’t having all the fun. The ’99 Problems’ and ‘Empire State of Mind’ rapper announced at the start of July that he’s coming to London, and he’s just added another date.
Jay-Z, who now has an umlaut on the ‘Y’ (JAŸ-Z is a throwback to his early album covers), will headline north London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in September in what will be his only UK tour stops of 2026. The tour in general marks 30 years of his career and also includes stops in Paris and Los Angeles. The first date was announced for September 4, and a second has been added for the following night (Sep 5).
