Jay-Z brings 30th-anniversary solo show to Paris and Los Angeles, with presale starting Thursday

The rapper will celebrate three decades of Reasonable Doubt with standalone shows at Stade de France on 10 September and SoFi Stadium on 23 October, following three sold-out nights at Yankee Stadium.

The autumn dates

Jay-Z will perform a solo concert at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis on Thursday 10 September, marking his first headline show at the venue. The appearance is part of a limited run this autumn that also includes a single night at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium on Friday 23 October. Before crossing the Atlantic, the rapper will play three sold-out shows at Yankee Stadium in New York on 10–12 July, each spotlighting a different album.

Live Nation

The French date falls roughly two months after the New York residency and five weeks before the Los Angeles closer. Organisers have not disclosed ticket prices for the Paris show at this stage.

Ticket rollout

Fans can access tickets via a staggered presale on Thursday 11 June. Mastercard and Citi cardholders will be able to purchase seats from 10:00 local time, with a separate window for Live Nation subscribers opening at 13:00. The general sale begins at 10:00 on Friday 12 June. Roc Nation added that subscribers to the Jay-Z 30 mailing list will also be eligible for Thursday's presale.

Jay-Z 30th-anniversary concert schedule
  1. Yankee Stadium show 1 (Reasonable Doubt night)
  2. Yankee Stadium show 2 (The Blueprint night)
  3. Yankee Stadium show 3 (greatest hits / mixed)
  4. Stade de France, Paris
  5. SoFi Stadium, Los Angeles

An anniversary celebration

The concerts continue a 30th-anniversary campaign that began with Jay-Z's return to the stage at Roots Picnic in Philadelphia on 30 May. There, he performed an a cappella freestyle that appeared to reference Dame Dash, Ye, Nicki Minaj, Tory Lanez and Drake. The upcoming Yankee Stadium run will feature dedicated nights for Reasonable Doubt (25 June 1996) and The Blueprint (11 September 2001), with the third night possibly blending both or serving as a greatest-hits set.

A solo return to Stade de France

Jay-Z has appeared at the Stade de France before, but only as a guest during Beyoncé's tours – including the joint On the Run outings in 2014 and 2018 and her Cowboy Carter tour in 2025. This September will be the first time he headlines the venue without his wife. The 56-year-old rapper was present at several Los Angeles dates of Beyoncé's recent tour but did not perform on stage.
