What can fans expect from his concert?

While details are still emerging, fans can look to Drizzy's recent gigs for a clue as to what the vibe will be.

At his show in Sydney back in February, Drake was filmed telling a fan holding a sign saying she was 20 weeks pregnant to get out of the mosh pit, he then gave her VIP tickets and $30,000 (£22,000).

It's nowhere near the first time he's done this, as last year he picked out a fan who completed chemotherapy for cancer and said she would be given $100,000 (£74,000).

At other times he's given people $20,000 to clear their student debts, gifted a fan with $30,000 (£22,000) for driving 10 hours to see his show and promising to pay for someone else's upcoming surgery.

On another occasion he said he'd pay off another fan's mortgage on the house they'd inherited after their mother had died.

Whatever the Canadian rapper has in store for UK fans, it certainly won't be dull.
