Drake has been cooped up inside for far too long, and now the Young Money standout is ready to breathe some fresh air into his [article id="1675855"]Club Paradise Tour[/article]. On Thursday morning (March 22), Drizzy announced a 27-city amphitheater run that will begin on May 7 at the Sleep Train Pavilion in Concord, California.

"I feel like this tour is coming at the perfect time," Drake said in a press release issued to MTV News. "It's taking place in the season that we all wait for, we're outdoors and you've got every single artist you wait to hear in the club on one bill ... that's Club Paradise."

J.Cole will ride out with Drake as an opening act, and Waka Flocka Flame, Meek Mill, 2 Chainz and French Montana will all support unspecified dates.

On the first leg of his tour, Mr. OVO sold out a string of U.S. college dates with Kendrick Lamar and A$AP Rocky before taking the show across the pond to a number of European venues like London's O2 Arena and the Oslo Spektrum in Norway. This time out, the "Take Care" rapper will hit a number of outdoor venues like the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Aaron's Amphitheatre in Atlanta and the Jones Beach Theater in Long Island, New York. Drake will also rock the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas, and the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee, before wrapping up the run at Boston's Comcast Center.

Tickets for the Club Paradise amphitheatre run will go on sale March 23 on Live Nation's website.
