Kendrick Lamar has unveiled plans for his 2025 North American tour, set to take place under the banner of the Grand National Tour. The tour will kick off in April at Minneapolis’ U.S. Bank Stadium, with SZA joining him as a special guest.
Kendrick Lamar to perform in various major cities
In addition to Minneapolis, Lamar will perform in various major cities, including Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Toronto, and Chicago. He will also stage two performances at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium and two homecoming concerts at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
Tickets for the Grand National Tour will go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. on Friday, December 6. Lamar’s latest album, GNX, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 following its release in November.

Tour’s name is inspired by recent album GNX
The Ford Field performance in Detroit marks a return to one of the city’s largest venues, years after Lamar’s earlier appearances in more intimate spaces such as the Shelter and Holbrook Cafe in Hamtramck.
Lamar, a 17-time Grammy Award winner, will be supporting his recent album GNX, which topped the Billboard 200 chart upon its November release. The tour’s name is inspired by the album title, which references the ’87 Buick Grand National Regal GNX—a car driven by Lamar’s father following the rapper’s birth.
