Kanye West (aka Ye) has confirmed a major return to Eastern Europe, locking in a solo stadium show in Poland for June 19, 2026. The concert, set for Stadion Śląski in Chorzów, arrives just hours after the rapper announced the postponement of his planned performance in Marseille, France.
The newly announced date is currently the only Polish stop on the YE — TOUR 2026, billed as “YE LIVE IN CONCERT.” In a statement addressing the Marseille situation, Ye said: “After much thought and consideration, it is my sole decision to postpone my show in Marseille, France until further notice.” The move follows reports that French Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez was exploring legal options to block the event.
The June 19 concert marks Ye’s first full headline performance in Poland in more than 15 years, following his August 20, 2011 set at the Coke Live Music Festival in Kraków. That appearance, staged during the My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy era, saw him share the bill with acts including Interpol, The Kooks, and Kid Cudi.
The Poland announcement lands amid a turbulent touring cycle. Earlier this month, the UK government barred Ye from entering the country, effectively canceling his planned headlining run at Wireless Festival 2026 in London. The decision followed mounting political and public pressure, ultimately leading to the festival’s cancellation and full refunds for ticket holders.
Earlier this month, the rapper returned to the stage in the United States, taking over SoFi Stadium for two shows following the release of his highly anticipated new album Bully. The concerts blended new material with his biggest hits, featuring special guests including Travis Scott, Andre Troutman, and Lauryn Hill.
