Kanye West’s St. Petersburg concert back on as US agency confirms dates

US agency Access Opera, a partner of Kanye West’s concert tour, has confirmed that the rapper is scheduled to perform in St. Petersburg, Russia, a representative of the agency told TV channel 78.ru on September 24.

“The show is still in effect for October 10th and 11th,” he said.

The TV channel also reported that the poster for the upcoming concert had once again appeared on the website of the event’s organiser, Say Agency.

The confirmation comes amid uncertainty over the concerts, after Gazprom Arena, the St. Petersburg venue where the shows were planned to take place, stated in late August 2026 that Kanye West’s October 10–11 performances could not be held there because no rental agreement had been signed with the promoters, despite earlier promotional posts by the stadium.
