Last month, 5x Grammy winner and one of the most notable hip hop, R&B, and fashion/style icons of all time, Ms. Lauryn Hill announced she would be once again reuniting with The Fugees, to co-headline an extension of The Miseducation Anniversary Tour in honour of her landmark album. Due to the great fan response, Ms. Hill and The Fugees are announcing they are adding additional European dates to the run – now also stopping in Dublin, Cardiff (as part of Cardiff Music City Festival), Cologne, a second night in Paris, Antwerp, and Hamburg.
Kicking off August 9th in Tampa, the 21-date tour will include US shows in Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles and more along with international dates in Ireland, UK, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden and Germany. The Fugees will co-headline all dates and YG Marley will be joining as support on select dates. The tour will feature music from The Miseducation of Ms. Lauryn Hill, The Score and more.
The newly announced UK show will be at the Cardiff Music City Festival, which is three glorious weeks of gigs, immersive music happenings, secret shows, unusual residencies, industry sessions, installations, and inventive pop-ups in the Welsh capital. Supported by the Welsh Government and Cardiff Council, the festival aims to attract 20,000 people to the city in its first year. Cardiff Music City Festival runs from September 27th 2024 – 20th October 2024. Sign up for updates and future announcements here: www.cardiffmusiccityfestival.wales.

*Not a Live Nation Date
“By finally accepting Hill’s ability to change, I realised that I had misread so much before. Here was an artist — once again, and on tour — rewriting the rules of hip-hop, and American popular music at large. She was not just teaching us how to hear “Miseducation” differently, but showing us what it looks like for a musician to truly evolve and redefine what we call a classic as something brand-new.” – THE NEW YORK TIMES
“Returning to the stage in full force, with a series of jubilant performance looks that remind us that she really is one of the greatest voices of our time, with a sense of style to match” -VOGUE
“Born vividly anew.” – VARIETY
“The Fugees set felt rebellious and punk. This was the singalong celebration the crowd clearly wanted….”- TORONTO STAR
