Chance the Rapper’s official debut LP, The Big Day, could top Billboard charts when the tallies come in this week, and the Chicago MC is bringing a tour supporting the effort to Tampa Bay.

An October 14 stop at Tampa’s Amalie Arena is one of just two Florida shows for Chance, who is set to headline Miami’s Beach Pop Festival on November 10.

Tickets for the show _ which is Chance the Rapper’s first in the area since a sold-out tour finale in 2017 and an appearance at Wild 94.1 FM’s Last Damn Show revival in November 2017 — go on sale Friday, August 2 at 10 a.m. and will start at $55.75.

More information on the show is available via amaliearena.com.
