The Saint Pablo Tour was the fifth concert tour by American rapper Kanye West which ran from August 25, 2016 to November 19, 2016 in support of West's seventh solo studio album, The Life of Pablo (2016). The tour was originally planned to run until December 31, 2016, but was canceled prematurely on November 21, 2016 due to West's hospitalization. It was the 18th highest-grossing tour of 2016 in North America. The shows played at The Forum in Inglewood, California were the most lucrative.
