A$AP Rocky announces a major 30+ date European tour, returning to Stockholm for the first time since his 2019 legal incident.

 

AceShowbiz - A$AP Rocky is set to embark on a major European tour this fall, performing over 30 dates across the continent, including a highly anticipated stop in Stockholm.

 

The Harlem rapper's European journey will begin on August 25 in Brussels and will extend through October, featuring a performance at the Avicii Arena in Stockholm on September 21. This marks A$AP Rocky's first return to the Swedish capital since his 2019 legal incident there.

 

Back in July 2019, A$AP Rocky was involved in a street altercation in Stockholm that led to his arrest along with two members of his entourage. The incident, which started after a confrontation with a 19-year-old man, became a widely reported international legal matter. Although convicted of assault by Swedish courts, A$AP Rocky avoided prison time and was given a conditional sentence. The case even drew attention from political figures, including then-US President Donald Trump.

 

Now, A$AP Rocky is set to perform in front of Swedish fans once again, this time promoting his hugely successful album Don't Be Dumb. Released in January 2026, the album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart with 123,000 units sold in its first week, marking A$AP Rocky's third chart-topping release.

 

The album also made waves on streaming platforms, boasting 31.72 million Spotify streams on its first day—his biggest debut on the service—and tallying 125.1 million streams in its opening week. Don't Be Dumb features collaborations and production by notable artists including Tyler, The Creator, Gorillaz, Thundercat, and Jon Batiste, with cover art created by filmmaker Tim Burton.

 

The North American segment of the tour started on May 27 with a sold-out show at Chicago's United Center, and momentum continues to build as A$AP Rocky prepares for his European dates. Tickets for the European tour will be available for general sale starting June 5, with artist presales beginning June 2 via ASAPROCKY.COM.

 

This upcoming tour represents a significant moment for A$AP Rocky, both professionally and personally, as he returns to cities linked to pivotal moments in his career and life.
