The Weeknd will be taking over social media app TikTok on Friday night (August 7, 2020) for an interactive live stream special.
The Weeknd Experience will feature the Blinding Lights singer as a digital avatar, belting out hits from his latest album, After Hours, in an augmented-reality gig created especially for the platform.
The unique show will mark TikTok’s first such concert and will feature 3D graphics and picture-in-picture video.
The broadcast will premiere exclusively on TikTok from 8:30 pm ET and repeat over the weekend.
