Diljit Dosanjh continues to break barriers and make history. After making waves at Coachella and captivating audiences on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the Punjabi superstar has now achieved another milestone by becoming the first Punjabi artist to sell out the Rogers Centre in Toronto, Canada. The retractable roof stadium, which can accommodate up to 49,286 people, was packed to capacity for his concert tour.
In a delightful twist, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a surprise visit to Dosanjh before the show. Both Dosanjh and Trudeau shared glimpses of this memorable moment on social media. In a video shared by Diljit, the singer and the Prime Minister greeted each other with folded hands before sharing a warm hug and posing with Diljit’s entire team.
The video captures the excitement of Diljit’s team, who can be heard chanting, “Punjabi Aa gaye oye (Punjabis are here)!” in celebration. Sharing the video on Instagram, Diljit wrote, “Diversity is Canada’s strength. Prime Minister @justinpjtrudeau came to check out history in the making: we sold out the Rogers Centre!”
Trudeau also shared photos from the event on his Instagram. The first photo shows him greeting Diljit, while the second captures him meeting the singer’s team. The third picture features Trudeau and Diljit in a light-hearted conversation. Trudeau’s caption read, “Stopped by the Rogers Centre to wish @diljitdosanjh good luck before his show. Canada is a great country — one where a guy from Punjab can make history and sell out stadiums. Diversity isn’t just our strength. It’s a superpower.”
Diljit, ever the social media enthusiast, shared several photos from his historic concert on Instagram Stories. One picture featured a “Sold out” banner, while a video showed a packed stadium with fans waving their phone flashlights, creating a mesmerizing sea of light.

Diljit Dosanjh, the multi-talented singer and actor, has consistently impressed with his music and films. His recent ventures, including ‘Crew’ alongside Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tabu, and Kriti Sanon, and Imtiaz Ali’s ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’ with Parineeti Chopra, have showcased his versatile acting skills. However, his ongoing Dil-Luminati Tour Year 24 has elevated his stardom to new heights.
The tour, spanning multiple international venues, has been a resounding success, with the sold-out show at the Rogers Centre being a highlight.
