Drake has announced his ‘Some Special Shows 4 UK’ tour with PARTYNEXTDOOR, with dates in Birmingham and Manchester, but will he be adding any London dates to the tour?
Drake puts on special performance for fans
Drake has revealed he is touring the UK this July, on his ‘Some Special Shows 4 UK’ tour with PARTYNEXTDOOR, announcing dates in Birmingham and Manchester but no shows in London, leaving southern fans disappointed.
Whilst he is performing in a history-making Wireless Festival based in London, fans are hoping the ‘Hotline Bling’ rapper will add some London dates to the newly announced ‘SSS4UK’ tour.
Drizzy has made it clear over the length of his career that he has a soft spot for the capital city, collaborating with lots of London rappers, praising the culture and even calling it his second home – So why is London not on the tour?
Taking over Wireless in the first-of-its-kind 3-day extravaganza, Drake is technically already performing for 3 days in London, so fans are presuming he thinks that that is enough to satisfy his London-based fans.
However, fans are not satisfied! They want more from him, which is understandable considering the tickets to Wireless sold out in just minutes, breaking the festival’s previous record.
Another point is that the Birmingham arena, the one closest to the capital, is only 15,800, the O2 in comparison, boasting a capacity of 20,000, meaning the ticket is going to be in even more demand!
Some fans are even claiming the Canadian rapper is favouring the other cities.
Sorry why are Drake and PND doing UK shows but only in Manny and Birms next month??? Helloooo where is London????

However, there are rumours beginning to circulate surrounding some surprise London dates dropping nearer the time as it wouldn’t be hard for the rapper to sell out the shows on short notice.
The rapper is touring the rest of Europe with dates in Amsterdam, Milan and Paris, so some London-based fans are sure to be crossing the channel to see what is set to be a legendary performance from the ‘Nokia’ star.
Tickets for the Manchester and Birmingham dates go on general sale on 6th June at 12pm.
