Travis Scott to bring Circus Maximus Tour to Sanya

American rap superstar Travis Scott is set to bring his record-breaking Circus Maximus World Tour to China, with a performance scheduled in Sanya, Hainan province, on Nov 1.

Huang Xing, director of the city's bureau of tourism, culture, radio, television and sports, said that this concert marks the first time a foreign megastar will perform in Sanya, showcasing the coastal city's aspiration to align itself with leading free trade port and zone cities and enhance its international influence.

According to the bureau, the tour's only stop in China is confirmed for Sanya. With a globally standardized stage production, the event will feature a standing-room-only audience, promising not just a musical experience but an epic sensory feast.

The successful landing of this phenomenal show was made possible by the swift approval processes from Sanya's bureau of business environment construction, which expedited document reviews, provided prompt feedback for revisions and granted permits within six working days. Multiple departments coordinated to ensure every aspect, from risk assessment to stage safety, was handled, safeguarding the international performance.

Travis Scott, 34, has established connections to China, notably through his music and fashion. His previous performances during the Astroworld tour garnered a significant fan base, with his albums consistently making waves on Chinese music charts. Travis Scott's fashion collaborations with various brands, particularly his sought-after sneaker releases in partnership with Nike, have resonated strongly with Chinese consumers.
