Diljit Dosanjh Made History Aagain at Toronto's Rogers Centre

The Punjabi icon played the stadium for a second time after biking around the city, admiring the CN Tower and meeting with the students of the Toronto Metropolitan University Course dedicated to him.

Nearly 50,000 fans packed Toronto’s Rogers Centre on Sunday night as Diljit Dosanjh returned to the stadium for another massive stop on his ongoing Aura World Tour, further cementing his place as one of the biggest global touring artists in Punjabi music.

The sold-out concert marked Dosanjh’s second time headlining Rogers Centre and quickly became one of the most talked-about live music moments of the weekend, with videos flooding social media showing stadium-wide singalongs, Punjabi flags across the venue and fans filling every section of the open-roofed venue.
