Playboi Carti announces Dublin date on 'Antagonist' tour

American rapper Playboi Carti, who rose to fame in 2017 with his self-titled album featuring Lil Uzi Vert and A$AP Rocky, has announced he will be coming to the 3Arena on November 19.

The Dublin date will mark his first European show on the tour, where he will continue to Manchester on November 21 and London the following day.

Carti's previous appearances in Ireland at the Longitude festival in 2018 and 2022 were both met with excitement by his Irish fans.

His 'Antagonist' tour will be his first headline tour in two years, and feature Opium Collective as support. He last released an album in 2020, Whole Lotta Red.

Opium Collective is a collaboration of Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, and Homixide Gang. The Antagonist tour will mark their debut as a group, though the artists have appeared individually at recent festivals including Bonnaroo, Wireless, and Rolling Loud.

Carson's performance at the Longitude festival earlier this month was highly-praised, and his most recent studio album, X, earned him a spot on the Billboard Top 200 last year.

Destroy Lonely's debut album released in May, If Looks Could Kill, reached number one on Apple Music, and the single of the same name went to number 30 on the U.S R&B/Hip Hop charts.

Homixide Gang, a rap duo from Atlanta, released their mixtapes Homixide Lifestyle in 2022 and Snot or Not in 2023.

Tickets are available tomorrow, July 14 at 4 p.m here.
