The Weeknd will wrap the album trilogy that began with 2020’s After Hours and continued with 2022’s Dawn FM with Hurry Up Tomorrow, which the artist announced this morning (Sept. 4) on Instagram. As of yet, there’s no release date for the project.
The post is full of mysterious sentences and phrases (“More songs could help, but what do I have left to say? Woe is me in my gilded cage, right?”), all of which add to the drama the Weeknd has been building with a variety of online teasers in recent weeks.

In the meantime, the artist has a huge one-off show on Saturday (Sept. 7) in São Paulo, which will be streamed live on YouTube. His music will also be the basis for The Weeknd: Nightmare Trilogy, which will premiere tomorrow at Universal Studios Hollywood as the flagship of their Halloween Horror Nights. The collaboration is described as “an authentic, one-of-a-kind horror experience with surprises at every turn.”
Meanwhile, the Weeknd will conclude the After Hours tour next month with two stadium shows each in Melbourne and Sydney.
Since Dawn FM, which, like After Hours reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200, the Weeknd has acted in the short-lived HBO series The Idol and guested on tracks by Travis Scott and Future and Metro Boomin.
