Drake Announces "October World Weekend Concert: Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, Lil Baby

The three-day event will close out the month of July and will be a part of the “Raod to OVO Fest Tour.”

He has been hinting that there is still plenty of time in 2022 to usher in another takeover, and Drake attempted to break the internet this evening (July 13) with a major announcement. We’re fast approaching OVO Fest’s 10-year anniversary, so it seems only fitting that Champagne Papi blesses his dedicated fanbase with a three-day concert series that will feature just a few of his chart-topping friends that he’s collaborated with throughout the entirety of his career.

On Instagram, Drake shared that October World Weekend will take place later this month from July 28 to August 1. The lineup is one that you don’t want to miss.
