Jay-Z has added second concerts in London and Los Angeles to his “Jay-Z 30” anniversary series after strong demand for the original stadium shows. The updated schedule now includes two nights at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in September and two performances at SoFi Stadium in October.
The concert series marks 30 years since Reasonable Doubt, Jay-Z’s debut album released on June 25, 1996. It also celebrates the 25th anniversary of his sixth studio album, The Blueprint, released on September 11, 2001.
Jay-Z 30 concert dates and venues
| Date | City | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| September 4, 2026 | London, UK | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium |
| September 5, 2026 | London, UK | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium |
| September 10, 2026 | Paris, France | Stade de France |
| October 23, 2026 | Inglewood, California | SoFi Stadium |
| October 24, 2026 | Inglewood, California | SoFi Stadium |
The London dates form Jay-Z’s only announced UK stop of 2026 and his first solo headline engagement in the country in more than a decade. Tottenham Hotspur Stadium lists a 10:30 p.m. curfew for the concerts.
The September 4 performance coincides with Beyoncé’s 45th birthday and the 20th anniversary of her second album, B’Day. That connection has generated speculation about a possible appearance, but neither Beyoncé nor the organizers have confirmed one.
London ticket and presale details
Tickets for the original September 4 London show are already on sale, subject to availability. For the newly added September 5 concert, the Live Nation presale begins Wednesday, July 29, at 1 p.m. BST.
The general sale for the second London date opens Thursday, July 30, at 10 a.m. BST. Reserved seating, standing places, accessible tickets and VIP packages may have separate availability.
Los Angeles ticket sale times
The added October 24 performance at SoFi Stadium is scheduled to start at 8 p.m. PDT. Its Citi cardmember presale begins July 29 at 10 a.m. PDT, followed by Jay-Z 30, venue and Live Nation presales at 1 p.m. PDT.
The general sale starts July 30 at 10 a.m. PDT. Ticketmaster lists a maximum of eight tickets per person and credit card for this date. Orders exceeding the published limit may be cancelled.
Prices can vary by section, package and demand, while verified resale listings may exceed face value. Buyers can confirm the complete schedule through Jay-Z’s official 2026 concert listings.
What ticket buyers should know
Fans should prepare their ticketing account and payment information before joining a sale. Presale access provides an earlier opportunity to shop but does not guarantee a seat, particularly when only limited inventory is allocated to each window.
Discount campaigns do not automatically include every performance. The eligibility rules attached to the Live Nation $30 concert ticket offer illustrate why buyers should verify the selected event and ticket category before checkout.
Sale arrangements can also differ between countries and promoters. The separate presale and venue information published for the System of a Down Australia tour provides another example of why local dates, time zones and authorized sellers matter.

Yankee Stadium concerts set the stage
The new dates follow three anniversary concerts at Yankee Stadium in Jay-Z’s hometown of New York City. The July 10 show celebrated Reasonable Doubt, while the July 11 performance focused on The Blueprint.
A third concert, titled “Extra Innings,” was added for July 12 because of demand and combined material associated with both albums. The finale started several hours late after a security breach outside the stadium, proceeding after organizers determined it was safe.
Guests appearing across the run included Rihanna, Beyoncé, Eminem, Nas, Usher, Alicia Keys, Pharrell Williams, Teyana Taylor, Jeezy, Slick Rick, Jaz-O and Blue Ivy Carter. No supporting acts or special guests have been announced for London, Paris or Los Angeles.
How the anniversary celebration began
Jay-Z’s return to major solo headlining performances began at the Roots Picnic in Philadelphia on May 30, where The Roots served as his backing band.
The collaboration carried historical significance. The Roots backed Jay-Z during his 2001 MTV Unplugged performance and reunited with him for the 10th-anniversary Reasonable Doubt concert at Radio City Music Hall in 2006.
The Yankee Stadium setlists drew from multiple stages of Jay-Z’s career, offering a possible guide to the international shows. Exact songs, running order and guests can still change, so attendees should monitor official updates for door times, stadium policies, transport guidance and lineup announcements.
