 J Cole is landing on British soil this month for the UK leg of The Fall-Off Tour. And he’s kicking it off here in London. 

The tour follows the release of Cole’s seventh studio album The Fall-Off and is his first solo headline tour in five long years. In fact, this is his first proper world tour since he was travelled the globe for the 4 Your Eyez Only Tour in 2017. In other words, these shows have been a long time coming. 

The rapper will be at London’s O2 for two nights before playing shows elsewhere in the UK. Then he’ll be back again for the finale of his UK stint in November. Got tickets? Tempted by last-minute tickets. Read on for everything you need to know about J Cole’s London shows.
