Hozier is about to take the city to church, as the singer is set to bring his soaring vocals, poetic lyricism and soulful folk sound to Toronto this week.
The Irish singer-songwriter is in the 6ix for his Unreal Unearth Tour, a one-night-only show at Rogers Stadium on Sept. 10. Playing to a crowd of nearly 50,000 fans, this show marks the penultimate Canadian stop on the extended limited North American leg of the tour. The second appearance will be in Cavendish, P.E.I. later this month for the Sommo Festival.
Hozier’s show will also be the final show to play at the seasonal open-air Rogers Stadium, after the venue officially opened earlier this summer.

Kicking off the tour in Europe in late 2023, the shows are in support of his critically acclaimed third studio album, Unreal Unearth, a genre-bending, Dante’s Inferno-inspired journey through heartbreak, hope, and the human condition.
