Jay-Z is heading back to New York for two summer stadium shows tied to two of the most important records in his catalog. The newly announced events will take place at Yankee Stadium on July 10 and July 11, with each night centered on a different album.

The schedule released this week shows the first concert marking 30 years of Reasonable Doubt, the 1996 debut that helped establish Jay-Z as a major force in hip-hop. The second night is set to honor The Blueprint, which turns 25 in 2026 and remains one of the defining releases of his career.

The Bronx venue gives the concerts extra hometown weight for the Brooklyn rapper, whose music has long been tied to New York identity and ambition. Framing the shows around full album anniversaries also sets them apart from a standard greatest-hits run.

No ticket details were included in the initial announcement. Even so, the two-night plan immediately stands out as a major live moment for a performer who has made only limited concert appearances in recent years.
