Grammy-nominated artist Khalid is set to headline a concert this week in downtown Toronto – and it’s totally free to attend!
As a part of the annual NXNE Festival, the American R&B singer and songwriter will perform a live outdoor show on June 12, 2025, taking place at Billboard Canada’s The Stage in Sankofa Square.
Kicking off at 8 p.m., you’ll want to arrive early to grab a good spot, and get ready to belt your heart out to his smash hits like “Young Dumb & Broke,” “Talk,” and “Eastside.”
For those worried about getting a spot for the free show, you can also upgrade to Platinum tickets, which will gain you premium access to an exclusive VIP zone near the front of the stage. There are still passes available, but I wouldn’t wait long!
NXNE (North by Northeast) Music Festival is celebrating its 30th anniversary starting this week, June 11, and runs until the 15th.
