Roc Nation and Jay on Tuesday (June 9) announced plans for one Los Angeles performance and a Paris concert. Hov is slated to hit Paris’ Stade De France on Sept. 10 and then head to SoFi Stadium for a show on Oct. 23.

Citi and Mastercard pre-sale tickets will be live starting on Thursday (June 11) at 10 a.m. local time on Live Nation before the general public sale begins on Friday (June 12) at 10 a.m. local time. Roc Nation adde d that fans subscribed to Jay-Z 30 will also be able to participate in Thursday’s pre-sale.

Jay-Z made his return to the stage at Roots Picnic in Philadelphia on May 30. He shook up the rap game with his a cappella freestyle, which appeared to see him take aim at Dame Dash, Ye (formerly Kanye West), Nicki Minaj, Tory Lanez, Drake and more.

Next up for the Brooklyn rap legend, Jay will return to the Big Apple for three sold-out shows at Yankee Stadium on July 10-12.

The July 10 show will find Jay-Z performing Reasonable Doubt in celebration of his debut’s 30th anniversary, while July 11 is set to favor 2001’s The Blueprint in honor of the seminal LP turning 25 in September.

It’s still unclear if July 12 will serve as an amalgamation of the two, or possibly a greatest hits set with Hov running through his decorated catalog.

Released by Roc-A-Fella through a distribution deal with Priority, Reasonable Doubt arrived on June 25, 1996, and peaked at No. 23 on the Billboard 200. The Blueprint landed on Sept. 11, 2001, and debuted atop the Billboard 200 with 427,000 albums sold, according to SoundScan (now Luminate).
