Wu-Tang Clan and Nas have announced their 2022 N.Y. State of Mind Tour will continue through 2023, with one stop in Toronto.
The co-headliners will perform in Toronto on Oct. 1 at Scotiabank Arena. Tickets are on sale to the general public starting Friday at 9 a.m., with presale starting as early as Feb. 28 via Ticketmaster.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, with many referencing both Wu-Tang Clan and Nas as pioneers of the genre.
Their 2022 leg of the N.Y. State of Mind tour led to critical acclaim, with the Rolling Stone saying the co-headliners proved the “genre’s elders have real staying power.”
This year’s tour will kick off in May, with the North American leg set to begin on Sept. 20 in Nashville.
Aside from Toronto, they announced other Canadian dates this fall, including in Calgary, Laval, Winnipeg, Edmonton and Vancouver. The rappers will also perform in New Zealand, Australia and Europe earlier in the year.
