MEGAN THEE STALLION ANNOUNCES LONG-AWAITED

“HOT GIRL SUMMER” GLOBAL TOUR WITH GLORILLA

 

Tickets go on sale Friday, March 22 at 10:00 a.m.

 

TAMPA, FL – Today, three-time, Grammy award-winning superstar Megan Thee Stallion formally announced the “Hot Girl Summer Tour,” a 31-city worldwide trek produced by Live Nation that will feature a special Chicas Divertidas VIP section and include a stop at Tampa’s AMALIE Arena on Saturday, June 8 at 7:00 p.m.

 

Grammy-nominated artist GloRilla will serve as a special guest on the “Hot Girl Summer Tour,” which will mark Megan’s first-ever, headlining tour in arenas across the globe. The Memphis-born hitmaker, who has delivered award-winning hits such as “Tomorrow 2 (feat Cardi B),” “FNF” and “Yeah Glo!,” will join Megan on the domestic leg of the tour.

 

Citi is the official card of the Hot Girl Summer Tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets for U.S. dates beginning Wednesday, March 20 at 1:00 p.m. until Thursday, March 21 at 10:00 p.m. through the Citi Entertainment program. For complete presale details visit www.citientertainment.com.

 

Fans can also purchase VIP Packages, which may include premium tickets, access to a VIP bar and cocktail service throughout the night, pre-show VIP Lounge, exclusive VIP merch item, early entry and more. VIP package contents vary based on offer selected. For more information, visit HERE.

 

The tour comes after her latest song “HISS” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February. “HISS” also became the first-ever, solo female rap song to debut No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 and, as a result, Megan now owns the record for the biggest first week for a solo female rap song in history.

 

The achievement signified Megan’s third No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, following her other chart-topping hits such as “Savage (Remix)” with Beyoncé and “WAP” with Cardi B. The song was Megan’s second solo release via Hot Girl Productions, her independent music and entertainment entity.

 

Earlier this year, Megan and Warner Music Group announced an innovative agreement that enabled the Houston native to maintain her independence as a musician while also having access to the music company’s robust global services, ranging from radio promotion to marketing worldwide. Through the unique structure of the agreement, Megan could release her music independently and still have distribution and resources with Warner Music, while having full ownership of her masters and publishing.  

 

It’s the latest in a series of trailblazing milestones for Megan in 2024. Most recently, Planned Parenthood announced plans to honor Megan with the organization’s Catalyst for Change Award at its annual gala in New York City on April 16.
