With Tha Carter VI set to arrive on Friday (June 6), Lil Wayne is plotting a North American tour to bring the album with him on the road later this year.

Announced on Tuesday (June 3), Weezy’s Tha Carter VI Tour is slated to kick off on Friday with a celebratory show at the iconic Madison Square Garden — Wayne’s first time headlining the NYC arena as a solo act.


The trek picks back up on June 30 in Virginia and then the 34-date tour heads to stops in Atlantic City, N.J.; Syracuse and Buffalo in New York; Toronto; Cincinnati; Minneapolis; Milwaukee; Detroit; Phoenix, Seattle; Los Angeles; Austin; Dallas; Atlanta and more before wrapping up in West Palm Beach, Fla., on Oct. 2.

It’s a Young Money reunion of sorts, with Tyga serving as an opener on the trek alongside Atlanta rapper Belly Gang Kushington. NoCap will also be appearing at a select number of shows.

The artist pre-sale will open up on Wednesday (June 4) while the general public will have their shot at tickets on Friday at 10 a.m. local time. Various VIP packages will also be available, and include “premium tickets, a limited edition poster, a specially designed gift and early entry into the venue,” according to the press release.

Tha Carter VI is Wayne’s first solo LP since 2020’s Funeral, which debuted atop the Billboard 200. The last three installments of the Carter series have reached the chart summit.

Weezy initially teased a C6 release date in a Cetaphil Super Bowl commercial, and ended up officially confirming the album’s June 6 arrival in April.

It’s a New Season for TWS — And They’re Ready to ‘play hard’

Their fourth mini album play hard marks the next chapter for TWS, who now grace Billboard Korea's digital cover.

Pure, almost unfiltered passion — it’s the defining trait of youth. As we grow older and face reality, that heat cools, emotions dull, and we become “adults.” Maybe that’s why so many eyes are drawn to TWS, who embody what we now call a “healthy narrative” in K-pop: honest lyrics, melodies that bring back a sense of innocence, and bright smiles that stay even when they dance with everything they have. Under HYBE’s PLEDIS Entertainment — their first boy group in nine years since SEVENTEEN — TWS leave exactly that impression.

In January 2024, the six-member group debuted with the candid “First Encounter Doesn’t Go as Planned.” The boys who once sang in school uniforms later returned with “If I’m S, Can You Be My N?” and wrapped up the year with “Last Festival,” themed around graduation. This April, their third mini album TRY WITH US captured the flutter of turning twenty and stepping beyond school. Now, with their fourth mini album play hard, they return, diving headfirst into what they love.
