Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR Electrify Antwerp’s Sportpaleis: An Unforgettable Evening
Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR: A Night to Remember in Antwerp
On Thursday, August 7, 2025, Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR will take over the legendary Sportpaleis in Antwerp for the electrifying finale of their “Some Special Shows 4 EU” tour. As the closing event of Europe’s summer concert season, this performance promises unforgettable energy, emotion, and powerful arena production in one of Belgium’s most iconic venues.
The Artists on Stage
Drake returns to Belgium with a dynamic set combining his biggest global hits, standout tracks from Some Sexy Songs 4 U, and surprising deep cuts for longtime fans. His commanding presence and emotional depth will create an intense and unforgettable finale. PARTYNEXTDOOR will open the evening with soulful R&B, weaving together fan favorites and introspective tracks that set a stirring tone before Drake captivates the stage.
Why Sportpaleis?
Situated in Merksem, Antwerp, the Sportpaleis is a historic and massive venue, accommodating over 23,000 fans in standing-room configurations and around 18,600 seated. With its inauguration in 1933 and modernization completed in 2013, it has ranked among the top global arenas by ticket sales during its busiest years. Its expansive floor, soaring ceiling, multiple bars, VIP lounges, and roomy foyer all enhance the concert-going experience with comfort and style . The venue is easily accessible by public transport—including tram lines 2, 3, 6, and nearby parking—ensuring a smooth journey for attendees .
What to Expect That Night
Expect an emotionally charged performance from PARTYNEXTDOOR followed by a spectacular set from Drake, filled with cinematic stage design, lighting, and heartfelt energy. As the tour’s final European show, this concert will be both a celebration and a grand climax, filled with surprises, deep fan connection, and immersive audiovisual experiences.
Why This Finale Stands Out
This Antwerp show represents a rare opportunity to witness the end of a groundbreaking European run. Drake’s return after six years, fueled by fresh material and dynamic stage presence, paired with PARTYNEXTDOOR’s soulful touch, makes this the most anticipated concert of the region. Sportpaleis’s legendary status and expansive capacity serve as the perfect stage for a show that promises to be both grand in scale and intimate in emotion.
