Karan Aujla is coming home to Canada.

The star Punjabi-Canadian artist has announced his 2026 P-Pop Culture Tour, which will bring him back to major arenas across the country this spring.


Produced by Live Nation, the four-date Canadian run will kick off on May 2 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, followed by Rogers Place in Edmonton on May 5, Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary on May 6 and conclude at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto on May 9.

The tour arrives on the heels of Aujla’s latest album P-Pop Culture, which debuted with 12.4 million streams and No. 3 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, making it the highest-debuting Punjabi-language album in Canadian history.

The release also saw Aujla surpass his own record, previously set by his 2023 album Making Memories, which held the title for the highest-charting Punjabi album debut in the country.

Aujla’s upcoming dates mark his return to some of Canada’s largest venues following a breakout period that included his first full Canadian arena tour in 2024. That run signalled a major expansion of his audience, as Punjabi music continues to gain wider visibility within North America’s live music circuit.

The announcement also lands on a major day for Punjabi music in North America, with Diljit Dosanjh separately unveiling his own Canada dates as part of a newly announced international tour.

Tickets for the P-Pop Culture Tour will be available via artist presale beginning Tuesday, February 3 at 10 a.m., with additional presales running throughout the week. General onsale begins Friday, Feb. 6 at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster and at Live Nation's website.
