On February 20, 2020, the Weeknd announced through social media that he would be touring North America and Europe later that year, sponsored by Verizon.[5][6][7] He also announced that Sabrina Claudio would be opening for both legs, Don Toliver would open in North America, and Black Atlass would open in Europe, replacing 88Glam.[8][9][10] On March 3, additional dates were added to Vancouver, Miami, Los Angeles and Toronto due to high demand.[11] An additional date was added to London on the following day.[12] On March 12, an additional date was added to the Czech Republic.[13]

Due to COVID-19 concerns, Live Nation announced all arena tours scheduled to take place in 2020 would be postponed.[14] When asked about the status of his tour during a cover story with Variety in April, the Weeknd stated that the tour would not be cancelled and that his team were working on the new itinerary.[15] On May 20, he announced the tour's new dates, with it being scheduled to commence on June 12, 2021, in Vancouver, and to conclude on November 11 in Berlin.[8][9]

On February 3, 2021, the Weeknd postponed his tour for a second time, and announced that the tour would begin in January 2022 in Vancouver.[16] He postponed the tour a third time on October 18, and announced that the tour will now begin in the summer of 2022, and will be held entirely in stadiums due to arena constraints.[17] He also revealed the tour's new name as a result of his decision to incorporate elements of Dawn FM. Updated tour dates and opening acts have yet to be announced.[18]
