It's All a Blur Tour – Big As the What? (2024) ...

It's All a Blur Tour was a co-headlining tour featuring Canadian rapper Drake, in support of his first collaborative album with Atlanta-based rapper 21 Savage, Her Loss (2022), and his eighth solo studio album, For All the Dogs (2023). The tour began on July 5, 2023, in Chicago, and is scheduled to conclude on April 5, 2024, in Newark, New Jersey, consisting of 72 shows across the United States and Canada.[1][2] It is Drake's first North American tour in five years.[3]

21 Savage joined Drake as the co-headlining act for the first leg of the tour, but was substituted by other artists for the Canadian dates due to his legal travel constraints at the time; J. Cole performed at the shows in Montreal on July 14 and July 15, Travis Scott performed at the shows in Vancouver on August 29 and August 30, while Lil Baby performed at the October 7 show in Toronto.[4]

Drake announced a second American leg of the tour co-headlined by J. Cole, titled It's All a Blur Tour – Big as the What? on November 13, 2023.[5] Lil Durk was later announced as the second leg's opening act for the remainder of the tour beginning on February 7. Lil Wayne was later announced as the substitute co-headliner for the final 7 dates of the tour (that J. Cole would not be present for) beginning on March 23.

Various artists intermittently appeared as the opening act during the first leg: Skillibeng performed on July 8 in Detroit and July 17 (alongside Sleepy Hallow) and July 20 in Brooklyn; Lil Yachty performed at every show from July 23 until August 1, and on September 1 in Las Vegas; Sexyy Red performed on August 15 in Inglewood and August 25 in Seattle; and Central Cee performed at every show from September 5 until September 11.
