Travis Scott is extending his lucrative Circus Maximus Tour to new continents by taking it to South America and the Land Down Under.

Scott announced on Monday (July 22) that he will be taking his lucrative trek to Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Puerto Rico, and Mexico; as well as both Australia and New Zealand.

“SOUTH AMERICA AND AUSTRALIA WHAT ARE WE DOING,” he wrote on Instagram. “IVE BEEEN WANTED TO BRING A ACTUAL TOUR THERE FOREVER. NOW LETS GET IT.”

Pre-sale for the South America shows begins on Wednesday (June 24), and for the Australia and New Zealand gigs on June 29.

But that’s not all the Travis news. He also announced that on October 9, in between the South America and Australia/New Zealand gigs, he’d be doing a special show at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium, the home of the NFL’s New York Giants and Jets.

“NEW YORK I WANTED TO DO THIS VENUE DURING THE FIRST LEG. BUT FOOTBALL SEASON HAD IT TIED UP,” Scott explained on IG. “HAD TO MAKE SURE WE SPIN THE BLOCK. NEW YORK HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE PLACE FOR ME WHEN I PERFORM IT LETS ME KNOW THE REAL METRIC OF THE RAGE. CANT WAITTTTTT FOR ONE NIGHT IN NEW YORK.”

The Circus Maximus Tour is currently in Europe, where it is earning Travis some big bucks.

Billboard, citing data from Live Nation, reports that Travis grossed $23 million over the first seven dates, which began on June 28 at GelreDome in Anthem, Netherlands and included the superstar’s biggest headlining show thus far, a July 11 gig at London’s 48,000 seat Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

That London show grossed $6.6 million and broke the stadium’s merch record.

Being on tour hasn’t stopped Scott’s multi-media onslaught, as he and Ken Griffey Jr. recently teased a collaboration with Nike’s baseball and softball sub-brand, for which a new trailer has now dropped.

On Thursday (July 11), the Texas native appeared in a Nike Diamond commercial alongside the Seattle Mariners legend.

In the video, Scott can be seen batting in an empty arena at night before the retired outfielder offers him some advice: “Your form isn’t bad, but you want to know the key? You got to step up to the plate believing you can hit.”

In late February, Travis Scott released a line of baseball cleats in partnership with Jordan exclusively for those participating in his annual Cactus Jack HBCU Classic game. Two shoes took on two different arrangements, both in tune with La Flame’s signature white, brown, tan and orange colorways.
