Kanye West to perform in St Petersburg this autumn – two shows at Gazprom Arena

Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, is scheduled to perform on 10 and 11 October at Gazprom Arena in St Petersburg. The shows would be among the most significant appearances by a Western star in Russia since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in 2022. If the concerts go ahead, they are likely to reignite sharp debate about artists performing in Russia.
