Atlanta-born rap firebrand Playboi Carti will return to Chicago this fall, rocking the United Center on Thursday, October 30, 2025, as part of his long-awaited Antagonist Tour in support of his third studio album Music. The show lands about a month into the 28-date North American arena run. The Antagonist Tour will be his first headlining tour since 2021, coming hot on the heels of his high-energy stadium performances with The Weeknd this summer.

The Antagonist Tour will launch in early October in Salt Lake City and will traverse major cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, and Columbus before reaching Chicago, then rolling into Detroit the next day. Joining Carti onstage in select cities are his Opium label mates Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, Homixide Gang, and trailblazer Apollo Red.

Carti’s Music, released in March 2025, marked a bold return following years of anticipation after the smashingly successful Whole Lotta Red in 2020. Featuring guest turns from Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, The Weeknd, and so much more, the album pushed his chaotic, genre-blurring sonic signature beyond this world, like on tracks like “Good Credit,” where Kendrick Lamar leaves his punching mark for the listener. 

Don’t miss your chance to witness Playboi Carti and his Opium crew raise hell at the United Center on Thursday, October 30. Tickets are available now at Ticketmaster.com.
