The Nicki Wrld Tour was a concert tour by American rappers Nicki Minaj and Juice Wrld. The European tour supported Minaj's fourth studio album, Queen (2018), and Juice Wrld's second studio album, Death Race for Love (2019). The tour began on February 21, 2019, in Munich, Germany at Olympiahalle and concluded on March 28, 2019, in Geneva, Switzerland at SEG Geneva Arena, consisting of 19 shows.

The tour was originally titled the NickiHndrxx Tour with Future and was to include a North American leg which was set to begin in 2018. Juice Wrld was later announced as the replacement for Future as the co-headliner.

Background

During an interview on Beats 1 Radio in April 2018, Minaj announced the release date of her fourth studio album Queen, as well as touring plans.[1][2] The NickiHndrxx Tour was officially announced in June of the same year, with co-headliner Future. The tour was set to begin in early September, but the North American leg was later postponed as Minaj "decided to re-evaluate elements of production".[3][4] In December 2018, Minaj announced that co-headliner Future withdrew, and was replaced by American rapper Juice Wrld, and that the tour could commence in Europe.[5]
