The first night of The Weeknd at Estádio do Restelo: with a dazzling smile, Abel Tesfaye is and will continue to be the eternal 'starboy'

The first night of The Weeknd at Estádio do Restelo, in Lisbon, took place this Saturday, marking Abel Tesfaye's return to Portugal three years after his performance at Passeio Marítimo de Algés. With a dazzling smile, the artist maintained his status as the eternal "starboy" during the concert.

The show is part of the After Hours Til Dawn Tour, a tour that spans the singer's entire career and began in 2022. This tour has become one of the greatest in music history, and the two dates at Estádio do Restelo mark the end of the European leg.

On the first night, the audience had the opportunity to attend a concert that, according to critics, represents a complete show and one that is hard to match. The event confirms The Weeknd's appeal to the Portuguese audience.

During her intervention, filmed and shared on social media, the artist emphasized that "other people's lives are not our business," defending that the fact that someone has a public job doesn't mean they should have to endure all kinds of verbal attacks. This reflection comes in a context of growing debate about online harassment and the pressure that public figures are subject to on digital platforms.
