Ayra Starr is taking her sound global this summer. The fast-rising Nigerian Afrobeats star has officially kicked off her Summer 2025 Tour, with several high-profile stops across North America — and in a major career move, she’ll be sharing the stage with Coldplay for a string of stadium shows.
The announcement was made via her Instagram Story on Tuesday, July 1, where the Mavin Recordssensation dropped a tour flyer listing past performances and upcoming dates.
From Afrobeats to the World
The tour began on June 20 at the Summerjam Festival in New Jersey, where Ayra wowed the crowd with her signature energy and vocals. From there, she lit up the stage at the St. Kitts Festival on June 28, and more recently, performed at the prestigious Montreal Jazz Festival on July 1, earning rave reviews for her soulful performance and global appeal.
Her next stop? Summerfest in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on July 3 — but that’s just the beginning.
