Diljit Dosanjh has unveiled dates for his Aura North America Tour, marking another large-scale chapter in his global live run with shows across Canada and the United States this spring.

The tour begins on April 23 in Vancouver at BC Place Stadium, before moving through Western and Central Canada. Dosanjh will perform at Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary on April 30, Rogers Place in Edmonton on May 2, and Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg on May 7. The Canadian leg wraps with a Toronto date on May 31 at Rogers Centre.


Between the Canada dates, Dosanjh will also take Aura to U.S. cities including Orlando, Dallas, Nashville, Atlanta, New York City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

The announcement comes as Dosanjh’s influence continues to expand beyond live music. In Canada, Toronto Metropolitan University is currently running a university-level course focused on his career and cultural impact, examining his role in shaping Punjabi music’s global reach, diaspora identity and contemporary pop culture.

Dosanjh’s recent milestones also include record-setting tours, sold-out arena runs across continents, a historic performance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival — where he became one of the first Punjabi-language artists to perform — and a high-profile appearance at the Met Gala, underscoring his growing presence across music, fashion, and global pop culture.

Ticketing details for the Aura North America Tour are expected to be announced soon, with further information to be shared in the coming weeks.

Labrinth Slams Music Industry for Turning ‘Gods Noise Into Business Transactions’

Labrinth has delivered another scathing criticism of the music industry, just a few days after he denounced his record label, Columbia Records, and Euphoria in a since-deleted social media post.

In a new Instagram post shared on Tuesday, the composer behind the HBO show’s memorable soundtrack described an industry that debases its own art and the people who make it for the sake of consumerism. “We hover around big stars hoping to be in their place one day like snakes waiting to eat their owners,” began Labrinth in his post. “We walk into this industry as pure creatives that wish to share color and get turned into wolves of wall street dribbling over stocks and shares,” he continued, “We have meaningful relationships with like minded people and discard them as soon as a bigger opportunity arrives. Who the fuck said this is normal or ok to turn what I call Gods noise (our music) into business transactions I dont subscribe.”

Kanye West Challenges $140,000 Jury Award at Malibu-Mansion Trial: ‘Cannot Stand’

Kanye West is seeking to overturn the $140,000 jury verdict awarded to handyman Tony Saxon after a recent two-week trial in Los Angeles.

Saxon testified he was severely injured while living and working at the $57 million Malibu mansion designed by Pritzker Prize-winning Japanese architect Tadao Ando that West, now known as Ye, purchased for $57 million in 2021. Saxon said Ye planned to transform the luxury contemporary beach house into an off-the-grid bunker and ordered it stripped of all plumbing, toilets, fixtures, cabinets, electricity, and a built-in concrete fireplace. When Ye sold the property three years later, it fetched $21 million, marking a steep loss.
