Just days after dropping “The Big Day,” his first full-length studio album, Chance the Rapper on Monday announced a 35-city North American trek in support of the disc.

The Big Day Tour kicks off Sept. 14 in San Francisco and will arrive at the United Center on Sept. 28. The tour wraps up Nov. 10 in Miami. According to Monday’s official release, special guests will be announced at a later date.

Tickets for all shows will go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Aug. 2 at chanceraps.com/tour. A special Citi pre-sale begins at noon Monday for cardholders. Details can be found at www.citientertainment.com.

The Grammy Award winner performed a special invite-only mini-concert last week at the Garfield Park Conservatory to coincide with the album’s release on Friday.
