  • Following his Brisbane show, Drake was seen partying at a local nightclub until early morning before departing Australia.

  • Drake's abrupt exit from Australia has fueled rumors and speculation about the reasons behind the tour's postponement.

  • During his Australian shows, Drake gained attention for his generosity, giving away significant amounts of cash to fans.

  • Speculation about the cancellation arose after an extended soundcheck left thousands of fans waiting outside the Brisbane venue.
