Ahead of the release of his chart-topping album, Utopia, Travis Scott popped out for several live shows, including a show in Rome, Italy, and a surprise performance during Drake’s It’s All A Blur Tour Vancouver, Canada stop. But in July, an Easter egg deep in Scott’s “KPop” video revealed that he would embark on an arena tour before year’s end.

On October 11, Scott kicked off his Utopia: Circus Maximus Tour at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. So, what time does Scott go on stage? According to Setlist.fm, on average, the doors for each tour stop open at 7 p.m. local time. But the live festivities don’t begin until approximately 8:30 p.m. local time when guest opener Teezo gets the crowd hype for Scott. Teezo’s set reportedly runs for anywhere between twenty to thirty minutes.

After Teezo leaves the stage, there is a brief intermission as the set is swamped out. So far, on tour, Scott has started his set at 9:30 p.m. with the opening track, “Hyaena” (view the full setlist here). However, if you plan on shopping at the tour’s merch shop, you should plan to arrive much earlier.

Utopia is out now via Epic Records and Cactus Jack. Find out more information here. Limited tickets are available for the remaining Utopia: Circus Maximus Tour. Find more information here.

Last Wednesday, October 11, Travis Scott opened his long-awaited Utopia — Circus Maximus Tour at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. The musician is continuing his North American trek tonight, October 18, with his second of two stops at American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas — the home state of his opener, Teezo Touchdown — before jetting to T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Missouri on Friday, October 20.

During opening night, it didn’t take long for photos of the tour’s merch options to leak onto the internet. According to a Reddit thread and from photos by people in attendance, there are several graphic tees, short-sleeved and long-sleeved, hoodies, and sweatpants.

The Reddit thread shows photo proof that prices range from $25 graphic tees to the $150 hoodie, the latter of which is cream-colored. The $125 army green sweatpants have “CIRCUS” and “MAXIMUS” screen-printed on each leg.

Earlier this evening, the American Airlines Center account on X (formerly known as Twitter) posted, “RECORD BREAKING: Congrats to @trvisXX + #CircusMaximusTour on BEST single-day merch sales on record at AAC! Get here early to avoid lines before UTOPIA Night 2! [star emoji, tent emoji].” Scott posted a screenshot of the post to his Instagram Story.

Scott’s Utopia album arrived on July 28 and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart dated August 12.

“All the kids love Teezo Touchdown,” Uproxx’s Aaron Williams wrote while reviewing the artist’s September major-label debut album, How Do You Sleep At Night? Apparently, Travis Scott also loves Teezo Touchdown, who scored the opportunity to open on Scott’s Utopia: Circus Maximus Tour.

The trek kicked off at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina on October 11. Scott and Teezo will perform back-to-back shows at PNC Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina on Friday (October 13) and Saturday (October 14) before heading to Teezo’s native Texas for back-to-back nights at American Airlines Center in Dallas on October 17 and 18. See all of the remaining Utopia: Circus Maximus Tour dates here.

Below, check out Teezo’s purported setlist (as relayed by fans on setlist.fm), including “Amen” from Drake’s freshly released For All The Dogs album. Teezo is the featured artist on the song and thanked Drake upon its release with an Instagram post captioned, “for all the dogs that’s driving around in Beaumont. congratulations @champagnepapi thank u for ur hospitality, professionalism and love for what u do.” (A much kinder reaction than Joe Budden’s).

Travis Scott fans are familiar with waiting. Nearly five years elapsed between Astroworld and Utopia. It was a roller coaster of teases and will-he-won’t-he before Utopia arrived in July, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. And then, there was somewhat of a false start for the supporting Utopia — Circus Maximus Tour. (Not to mention, the show that never was at Egypt’s Pyramids Of Giza.) The tour was initially announced in early August, but ticket sales were delayed for reasons unknown until the end of the month.

Finally, Scott’s Utopia — Circus Maximus Tour opener was staged on Wednesday night (October 11) at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. Teezo Touchdown is serving as the opener. They will stay in North Carolina through the weekend with back-to-back shows at PNC Arena in Raleigh on Friday (October 13) and Saturday (October 14).

See all of the remaining dates here, and check out Scott’s opening night setlist below (courtesy of fans in attendance via setlist.fm).
