Chance The Rapper Announces Spring 2017 Tour
As if the headlines weren't packed enough already with news about Chance The Rapper, this morning the 24-year-old Grammy Award-winner announced that he would be heading out on a North American headlining tour. The announcement comes on the heels of his wins for Best New Artist, Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Album at the 59th edition of the show.
The tour kicks off in San Diego on April 24 and makes a two-month run across the country before wrapping up in Dover on June 17, with a Los Angeles show scheduled on October 3. As of now, there doesn't seem to be any plans for a Chicago date, but with the tour running through the summer months maybe we'll get the honor of a follow-up festival appearance in town.
Tickets go on sale Tuesday night at 7 PM CST at ChanceRaps.com.
