KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 5 — Canadian R&B superstar The Weeknd kicked off his Kuala Lumpur stop with a spectacular first-night performance at the TM National Stadium in Bukit Jalil last night.
The show, which drew more than 65,000 fans, marked the final city on his record-breaking After Hours Til Dawn (AHTD) Tour, ahead of its grand finale tonight.
The spectacle featured a towering 40-foot chrome-and-gold robot sculpture created by Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama, alongside immersive laser displays, dazzling visuals, cloaked dancers and pyrotechnics.
The Weeknd, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, opened the show at approximately 9pm with an electrifying rendition of Baptized in Fear, emerging on stage in his iconic MF DOOM-inspired chrome mask to a roaring reception.
