Dave’s Hot Chicken launches sweepstakes for Drake concert tickets

Dave’s Hot Chicken is also dealing in hot concert tickets.

The Pasadena-based restaurant chain has launched a sweepstakes that gives members of its “Frequent Fryer” loyalty program the chance to win ticket’s to Drake’s It’s All a Blur tour with 21 Savage.

This is Drake’s first North American tour since 2018.

Concerts include Kia Forum, Inglewood, Aug. 13, 15, and 16; Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, Aug. 21-22;  Chase Center, San Francisco, Aug 18; and T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Sept. 1-2. There are several other dates throughout the United States between July 11, in Boston, and Oct. 5, in Toronto.

To enter, people need to download the Dave’s Hot Chicken app and then choose a preferred concert and date, according to a news release. They can then receive additional entries for the chosen concert by making purchases while logged into the loyalty program.

Winners will be notified about a week before each concert date, the news release said. For the Southern California dates, people have until early August to enter.

In addition to racking up 205 charted songs as a solo artist on the Billboard Hot 100, Drake is an investor in Dave’s Hot Chicken.

It was founded as an East Hollywood pop-up in 2017 and is now America’s fastest-growing restaurant chain, it announced in May, citing research by the firm Technomic that showed its sales  increased 156% over the past year.

An entry form and rules sheet, including entry deadlines for individual concerts, can be found on the company’s website, daveshotchicken.com.
