Tickets will be available at Ticketmaster and Live Nation starting August 8, and fans who purchase seats will also receive a digital copy of the album. Dates below.
In related news, Jay and ‘Ye have released a behind-the-scenes documentary for Watch the Throne. The 10-minute clip follows the pair around the world as they recorded the set and features scenes of them celebrating Jay’s birthday with his wife Beyoncé.
