The Canadian singer-songwriter will perform his latest and fourth studio album, After Hours, during a virtual concert on the Chinese video sharing platform. The event, dubbed "The Weeknd Experience," will be livestreamed on Friday, Aug 7 at 8.30 pm Eastern Time exclusively on TikTok (on the @tiktok account).

Rather than appearing in person to perform songs from his chart-topping album, The Weeknd will be represented by a digital avatar as part of what TikTok calls its "first-ever in-app cross reality experience."
