Young Thug Sets 'Hometown Hero' Benefit at State Farm Arena for Dec. 16

The charity-focused homecoming is permitted under his 2024 plea deal limiting appearances in metro Atlanta.

Overview

  • Tickets go on sale Wednesday, Oct. 8 at 10 a.m. ET via Ticketmaster.
  • The event is billed as “Young Thug & Friends,” and additional performers have not been announced.
  • Organizers present the concert as supporting his new album UY Scuti, which recently arrived with a subsequent Supernova edition.
  • The appearance fits the plea agreement’s narrow allowances for community events and anti-violence outreach in Atlanta.
  • The show follows his Sept. 28 free set outside the Fulton County Courthouse that officials called an anti-violence, anti-gun, anti-gang rally, and he has said he plans a 2026 tour with Quavo.
