St. Petersburg-born rapper Rod Wave turns 24 years old this summer, and to celebrate, he’s inviting about 16,000 of his friends and fans to party with him in downtown Tampa.

Tickets to the first-ever “1st Annual Rod Wave Birthday Bash” at Tampa’s Amalie Arena on Friday, Sept. 1 go on sale Friday, June 16 at 10 a.m. and start at $60.

On social media, Wave—born Rodarius Marcell Green on Aug. 27, 1999—hinted that the show will be part of a tour supporting a followup to his last album, 2022’s Beautiful Mind. A press release from Amalie Arena promises “a star-studded event with soon to be announced mystery guests.”

It’s been just over two years since Wave, who went to Lakewood High School, saw his album Soulfly knock Justin Bieber off the top of the Billboard 200, marking the rapper’s first No. 1 album. Beautiful Mind spent a week at No. 1, too.

Since then, he’s given away thousands of dollars of gasoline in his neighborhood, played Tampa Bay’s largest venue, and seen a felony charge of domestic battery by strangulation dropped.

Known for an emotional style of rap and pop, Wave has promised fans that he’s done making sad music.
