Ye Expands Global Tour with First Jakarta Performance

Ye is set to bring his record-breaking international tour to Jakarta, marking his first performance in Southeast Asia in over 15 years.

Ye Expands Global Tour with First Jakarta Performance

Ye is bringing his record-breaking international tour to Southeast Asia this October with a Jakarta performance that marks the region’s only stop on his 2026 run. The artist will take the stage at Gelora Bung Karno Stadium on October 24, with organizers expecting up to 77,000 fans from across the region and Australia to pack the venue for what is shaping up to be one of the year’s biggest concert events in the territory.

This Jakarta date represents a major expansion of Ye’s global footprint after months of successful performances outside Europe. His Ye Live Concert Tour kicked off in April at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, where he moved 140,480 tickets and generated $33 million across two nights.

Global Tour Momentum

The momentum carried internationally, with Istanbul drawing 118,000 attendees in May, followed by strong showings in the Netherlands, Georgia, and Albania throughout the spring and early summer. The tour supports his latest album Bully, which debuted at number one on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart after dropping in March.

While Europe presented obstacles, with France, Poland, Italy, the Czech Republic, and the UK canceling shows due to his past antisemitic remarks, the rest of the world has embraced his comeback. His San Antonio performance drew over 61,000 people and grossed $9 million, proving that outside of Europe’s restrictions, his tour continues to thrive.

Immersive Production and Future Dates

The Globe Stage, his signature 360-degree immersive production, has become the centerpiece of every show, placing audiences at the heart of the experience rather than on the periphery.

Tickets for Jakarta start at approximately $134 and go on sale July 29 through yejakarta.com, with hotel packages also available. Before Indonesia, Ye has confirmed dates remaining in Madrid on July 30, Algarve on August 7, Almaty on August 14, New Orleans on August 28, and two Chicago shows on September 3 and 4.

Ye previously performed in Singapore twice, at the Singapore Indoor Stadium in 2008 and at SingFest in 2010, making this his first Southeast Asian performance in over 15 years.
