The Weeknd: Live at SoFi Stadium debuts on HBO Max on Saturday (Feb. 25). The concert special was taped at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles during the first U.S. leg of the Canadian singer’s After Hours ‘Til Dawn tour last year.

The concert special features the Grammy-winning singer performing a 95-minute set of hits from After Hours and Dawn FM in front of a sold-out crowd. The Weekend: Live at SoFi Stadium will mark the end of the Dawn FM era. “HBO concert will be the last piece of Dawn FM. I can see the horizon,” the Grammy winner tweeted on Feb. 18.
