Drake's Australian tour clashes with Super Bowl 2025
- Drake's Australian tour starts on February 9, 2025, with shows in major cities.
- The tour coincides with the Super Bowl, causing fans to speculate on its timing.
- The scheduling may lead to a publicity battle between Drake and Kendrick Lamar.
In November 2024, Canadian rapper Drake announced his upcoming tour in Australia, which is set to begin on February 9, 2025. The tour, named 'the Anita Max Wynn Tour,' will feature performances in Melbourne, Sydney, and the Gold Coast, marking Drake's return to Australia after an eight-year hiatus. However, fans noted a potential issue as the tour's start coincides with the NFL Super Bowl, scheduled for the same day. The Super Bowl Half-Time Show will be headlined by Drake's rival, Kendrick Lamar, raising questions about the timing of Drake's tour and the possibility that it might be strategically planned to overshadow the event. While some fans speculate about Drake's intentions, others suggest that the tour may bring more attention to him than the Super Bowl performance, which lasts only 12 minutes. The relationship between Drake and Lamar has been complex, moving from camaraderie to rivalry, which adds a layer of intrigue to this scheduling overlap.
