FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Kendrick Lamar and SZA will be playing at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough Massachusetts on May 12, 2025 according to promoters. 

The Grand National Tour has 19 dates starting on April 19 in Minneapolis and ending on June 18 in Washington DC. 

Cash App Visa Card pre-sale tickets will go on sale Wednesday, December 4 at 10a.m. General on sale starts Friday, December 6 at 10 a.m. local time on grandnationaltour.com

The Grammy winner's 12-track "GNX" is the rapper's first release since 2022's "Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers" and his sixth studio album overall. It also comes just months after his rap battle with Drake.

Lamar first teased the album with a cover art of "GNX," which features multi-instrumentalist Jack Antonoff as a co-producer on every track except for "Peekaboo." Other notable producers includes Sounwave and DJ Mustard, who both contributed production on the hit "Not Like Us," the ubiquitous diss track emanating from the Drake feud.

Lamar's former Top Dawg Entertainment labelmate SZA appears on a couple songs including "Gloria" and "Luther," which also features sampled vocals from Luther Vandross and Cheryl Lynn through "If This World Were Mine." The pair have worked together over the years. 

Lamar, 37, has experienced massive success since his debut album "good kid, m.A.A.d city" in 2012. Since then, he's accumulated 17 Grammy wins and became the first non-classical, non-jazz musician to win a Pulitzer Prize for his 2017 album "DAMN."

The tour's name refers to one of the most powerful cars in the 1980s, the Buick Grand National. Lamar's "GNX" refers to a limited edition of the Buick Grand National, the GNX, which had an even more powerful engine.
