Legit.ng gathered that LiveNation on Tuesday, July 6, made the Wizkid's tour known to the general public. The tickets presale was announced for Thursday, July 8, by 10am and the sale, Friday, July 9.

It came as a surprise to many when the management of History Toronto announced that tickets were sold out within minutes of opening.

"Tickets sold out in minutes as people were clamoring to scoop up floor seats to what will surely be one of the hottest concerts early next year."

It was gathered that many disappointed fans of Wozkid are calling for a second show even before the first commences.

An excited Wizkid also shared the news on his Instastory.

"Now resale floor tickets are already selling for over $160 and general admission floor tickets with a WizKid meet and greet for close to $400. Wizkid tickets in Toronto? Anyone selling??"

Some people are giving the reason for the quick sell-out to be because Drake and Wizkid have a couple of songs together like Come Closer and One Dance and they are of the belief that Champagne Papi, as the Canadian rapper is fondly called, will make an appearance during the concert.

Another set of people also believed Drake will make an appearance because he owns the venue of the show.
