Lil Wayne will return to Alabama in 2023 on his “Welcome to Tha Carter Tour,” playing a show on April 24 at Birmingham’s Iron City.

Tickets for the 8 p.m. concert go on sale Friday, Feb. 3, at 10 a.m. CT via Ticketmaster. (A pre-sale starts on Tuesday at noon, according to the Ticketmaster website.) Tickets are priced at $79.95 for general admission, according to promoter Live Nation/Red Mountain Entertainment. The Iron City website lists prices as $77.50-$348, with the upper level presumably for VIP tickets.

The April show at Iron City, 513 22nd St. South, gives fans a chance to get up close and personal with the hip-hop star, known for his top-selling albums, hit singles, collaborations with other artists and flamboyant stage presence.

Iron City, with a capacity of about 1,300 in its main concert space, is much smaller than venues Lil Wayne has played previously in the Birmingham area. In July 2013, for example, the hip-hop star performed at Oak Mountain Amphitheatre in Pelham, which holds about 10,500 people, on his “America’s Most Wanted” tour with T.I.

Lil Wayne, 40, born Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., is one of the most recognizable figures in the hip-hop world, forging a reputation as a rapper, songwriter, producer and the founder of Young Money Entertainment. He has several awards to his credit, including five Grammys. His platinum-selling record series, “Tha Carter,” has spawned hits such as “Lollipop,” “A Milli,” “She Will,” “6 Foot 7 Foot,” “Got Money,” “Don’t Cry” and more.

Five volumes of “Tha Carter” (2004-2018) have been major spurs to his fame, and Lil Wayne has said “Tha Carter VI” is in the works, along with a new installment in his “I Am Not a Human Being” record series.

Lil Wayne has collaborated with many artists over the years, including Drake, Machine Gun Kelly, T-Pain, 2 Chainz, Usher, Doja Cat, Chris Brown and more. His business ventures include a cannabis brand, GKUA Ultra Premium, and a sports agency, Young Money APAA Sports.

Lil Wayne has made TV and movie appearances, and competed on “The Masked Singer” in 2020 as the Robot. He was eliminated on the first episode of Season 3, after singing “Are You Gonna Go My Way” by Lenny Kravitz in costume.
