Travis Scott’s Circus Maximus Tour set down for FNB Stadium

Global hip-hop star Travis Scott is officially bringing his Circus Maximus Tour to South Africa, with a major stop at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on October 11.

The Grammy-nominated rapper and producer, known for explosive hits like “Fe!n”, will make his long-awaited return to the country — marking his second performance in South Africa, but his first at FNB Stadium. The announcement has sparked major buzz across social media and the local music scene, with fans eager for what’s expected to be one of the biggest live shows of the year.

Scott has built a reputation for high-energy, visually immersive performances that blur the line between concert and spectacle. His global tour has already played to sold-out arenas across North America and Europe, and the Johannesburg stop is expected to draw tens of thousands.

This show places Scott alongside an elite group of international artists who’ve headlined South Africa’s largest venues. Just last year, Chris Brown packed FNB Stadium with over 90,000 fans, while local stars Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa filled Loftus Stadium earlier this year for their Live with Friends show — another major moment in South African live music.

Scott’s arrival adds to the country’s growing reputation as a key destination for global touring acts. As South Africa continues to host more high-profile shows, it’s clear that the local appetite for live music — especially hip hop — is not only thriving but setting new standards.

Tickets and further details about the Johannesburg concert are expected to be released soon.
